Voted "Best Speaker" at Toastmasters International Speech Area Contest
A powerful journey that depicts the life of a Lebanese immigrant single mother. Displaced by a sectarian civil war into a land she has only seen on television, a young woman relies on her courage and determination to navigate the uncertain challenges of assimilation and single parenthood.
This collection of micro-memoirs, originally presented as speeches, reveals optimism in the face of adversity and the true power of family love and loyalty. In eight engaging short stories, Sylvie reflects on flashing moments in her past.
