A Numbered Street

Migrating in search of the American Dream became the ultimate goal for a group of friends on a forgotten street in a Latin American city, where they lived amidst intrigues, dangers, discrimination, injustices, poverty, and crime. Surviving depended on the extraordinary skills of some and the involvement in illegality by others. The challenge was to defy the barriers imposed by a fractured society, dominated by prejudices, fear, and uncertainty. Along the way, they discovered the relevance of economic power, politics, and sexuality, under the influence of foreign values and the confrontation between ideologies and practices of a conservative society. A Numbered Street is the story of a generation trapped between tradition and modernity. Its characters will captivate the reader during the tireless pursuit of well-being that was not guaranteed in their country, in a process that revealed to them the importance of love and loyalty.
