O knihe

In this age of saturation, you have to stand out with your stories. And if you are going to stand out, not only does your work have to be top-notch, but you are probably going to have to get creative. This is what Michael David Decosta believes and tries to achieve with his memoir.
He conveys the story of his life growing up in Guyana so that you taste, feel, and smell his world. His childhood, his adolescence and finally, adulthood. This book is a book about love and loss, and carries the emotional experience and interiority of a being's life.
Memories are not fixed. They go on changing and playing a game of hide and seek with your mind. At various instances, across various moods, you will remember a different colour of a memory. Michael has sat with his memories for long, drank coffee with them and showered with them. Only when he has felt that he knows the perfect way to etch those memories down has he done so. He has thought about what happened to him, and can confidently say that the experiences he has written down have made him live again.
Some of his memories are over fifty years old now, and yet are preserved crystal clear. And it is his hope that his readers are fulfilled with the narratives he presents in this book.
