I Wonder: An Immigrant's Song - Paperback

by Mark Sashine (Author), Hal O'Leary (Translator)

I Wonder - An Immigrant's Song is the discovery that the only universal language is the language of poetry.

Whoever reads this book attentively will become a dear friend of two cultures, two nations, two people and two languages. Read it twice.

Wondering is an occupation. This book is a biography of the feeling of insatiable wonder that brought together two Americans: one native-born and the other, naturalized, first generation. In this book, through the language of poetry and essays, the authors convey a message of love and respect, a message of worry and discontent, a message of equality and mutual cooperation; all of which form the cornerstone of a healthy and productive coexistence of people so diverse. This is a book of challenge and conquest: the challenge of the new world and the conquest of the new life. Enjoy.
