And how different is it today\, from 100 years ago? \nAbout Maria:\nThis is Maria Alvarez Stroud’s debut novel\, although throughout her varied career\, writing was central to her work\, which included national productions and community engagement campaigns within public broadcasting\, statewide educational efforts\, and leading a nationally acclaimed media organization. \nAbout the book:\nDescribed as “A wonderful immigrant story”\, and “a book you don’t want to put down”\, BRAVE CROSSING is “A true story reimagined in a deeply personal way\, Brave Crossing is only one man’s journey from another time yet shines a light on every immigrant’s struggle toward the promise of America.” \nThe novel is a coming-of-age saga told through the eyes of Ricardo\, a young Spanish- Filipino\, as he voyages to America in 1916. He embarked on his journey thinking he was leaving behind war\, rampant disease\, unspeakable deaths\, and family secrets only to find a country on the cusp of race riots\, World War I\, and a global pandemic. He learns that each of these each of these events has the power to define who he is and whom he may become. \nBooks can be purchased from http://littlecreekpress.com/bookstore/brave-crossinga-journey-in-between/ through Maria at https://www.mariaalvarezstroud.com/ or Mystery to Me Bookstore.
