Sobre IBD

This novel depicts the odyssey of an immigrant in the USA as he chased his American dream. His journey started from the day he acquired a US visa in his homeland, having undergone a gruelling grilling like a Hilary Clinton being put on the spot to defend her sanction of the war in Iraq. When he finally got the gold spoon, he felt like he was the burning torch in the hand of the Statue Of Liberty. Then just when he thought he was heading for a bed of roses in the mainland, he had to think twice in paradise. The work appeals to every emotion - sadness, joy, disgust and even loneliness. The protagonist uses flashbacks and his stream of consciousness to stimulate the actions in the story.
