Publisher's Synopsis
This book is about a woman's struggle to make it in America after migrating from Guyana in South America. It deals with issues that she had to overcome to survive in Brooklyn, New York. The stories are all true, but names have been changed to protect the identities of relatives and close friends. The events take place in urban settings, and they are not typical of all immigrants. The book shows that anyone can overcome adversity if he or she is determined to work hard and remain focused on personal goals.
