Book Description
Ruby's Dream tells the story of a Caribbean boy's life as he struggles to reconcile the untimely death of his mother and the abandonment by his alcoholic father. Yearning to change his life, he realizes that an education is the single most important factor that could bring this to fruition. After moving to New York, he navigates the life of a young immigrant seeking employment in order to pursue his goals. He reconnects with friends from his village in the Caribbean who are living in New York illegally. While working in the garment district and at AT&T, he manages to save enough money to pay for the first semester of university, with the belief that once he starts, he would find a way to complete his studies. He graduates with a degree in English and Teacher Training and sees it as an achievement to negate the circumstances of his difficult childhood.
