It was all going so well for Peter Lee's drug empire. He had a hold on the producers in Afghanistan and Pakistan. His receiver network was increasing and the distribution was now being handled by four of the biggest gangs in London. With business so good, he was starting to expand. He was becoming very, very rich. The only small annoyance had come from a little old lady who owned of all things a corner shop.

Ezekiel "Easy" Porterhouse Rawlins is an unlicensed private investigator turned hard-boiled detective always willing to do what it takes to get things done in the racially charged, dark underbelly of Los Angeles. But when Easy is approached by a shell-shocked Vietnam War veteran - a young White man who claims to have gotten into a fight protecting a White woman from a Black man - he knows he shouldn't take the case.

Easy Rawlins has done it again.

The struggles of Easy Rawlins then are the same struggles of every Black man in America today, despite being born in America having to prove you're worthy of your Birthright.

Havana, Cuba, 1947. Young Patricio flees impoverished Spain and steps into the sultry island paradise of Havana with only the clothes on his back and half-baked dreams of a better life. Blessed with good looks and natural charm, he lands a job as a runner at El Encanto - one of the most luxurious department stores in the world. Famous for its exquisite offerings from French haute couture to Arabian silks, El Encanto indulges the senses in opulent extravagance. It caters to visiting Hollywood stars, rising politicos, and prerevolutionary Cuba’s wealthiest power players.

Endless love
Revisado: 01-05-20
All those who do not know the real Cuba of 1940, 1950, 1960, and beyond can listen to this story and know that love of heart and home last forever. An island so exciting, glamorous, and mystical it's still referred to and remembered as paradise.

Rosie Perez first caught our attention with her fierce dance in the title sequence of Do the Right Thing and has since defined herself as a funny and talented actress who broke boundaries for Latinas in the film industry. What most people would be surprised to learn is that the woman with the big, effervescent personality has a secret straight out of a Dickens novel. At the age of three, Rosie’s life was turned upside down when her mentally ill mother tore her away from the only family she knew and placed her in a Catholic children’s home in New York’s Westchester County.

ROUGH, RAW, RESILIENT, AND REAL! Rosie served up T
Revisado: 01-21-15
If you could sum up Handbook for an Unpredictable Life in three words, what would they be?
Tell Your Truth
What other book might you compare Handbook for an Unpredictable Life to and why?
The story of Horatio Alger, pull yourself up by your own bootstraps(or in Rosie's high heels and make it do what it do) and succeed in life on your own terms.
What about Rosie Perez’s performance did you like?
Nobody can tell your story like you can. Rosie spoke to her listeners like an old friend you haven't spoken to in a while, but you pick up the conversation like you just spoke a half hour ago and she never missed a beat.Love it or Hate it, her voice is the real sugar in this T.I savored every word.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
SERVE UP YOUR OWN T WITH NO APOLOGIES
Any additional comments?
If this book is made into a film, the lead actress must have DIMPLES!!
