A provocative novel that challenges many of the common misconceptions about today's young immigrants. The story, rich in satire, evolves around the life of Carlos Rodriguez, a hopeful expatriate who sits down to write his memoirs hoping to find what he has been missing - a place in the world where he can feel at home. The book is told in first-person view and highlights the events that propelled him to immigrate to the United States, where he ended up overstaying the time allowed on his tourist visa. Join him in his exciting adventure as he confides in you, sharing his most precious memories about love, family, culture, religion, politics, education, and of course, immigration.
