This audio CD was interesting. It weaves a tale of intrigue and lessons learned by a young immigrant. The storyteller's cadence in the writing, and on the audio is staccato and blunt. It's not hard to listen to, but has a much different rhythm than most books. I saw America at mid-twentieth century through the eyes of someone learning and yearning to know new things, new ways, and new people. The fresh-faced youth at the beginning of the book is not the same rather hardened cynical man toward the end. Life will do that to you. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others.
