Beschreibung
What if the path to a better life is the path you are avoiding?
In the mid-1970s, Ben, a Greek student attending the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, meets and falls in love with Shelley, a beautiful American classmate. Upon his graduation, he must make a choice: will he keep his promise to his parents not to marry an American and return to Greece, or will he break his promise, marry Shelley and stay in America? His decision changed his life.
Follow along on Ben's fascinating life journey from a poor village on Mount Olympus, Greece, to America and beyond, as he explores the stories that made it possible for him to find love, a better life, and two countries to call home.
The stories will entertain and inspire you to contemplate your own life journey and the family stories that shaped your life and legacy.
Critics are calling the book "moving and funny," "honest and engaging," "entertaining, positive and uplifting."
