Monkey Hunting


Monkey Hunting by Gabriel Garcia – This was an interesting story that spanned 100 years and 5 generations. This is the story of a Chinese man who went to Cuba on promises of riches only to find himself on a slave ship bound for the sugar fields of Cuba.
His life and those of his descendants follows.

I enjoyed this story. It was not life changing but it was life reflective. And life appreciative. I found myself realizing how lucky I have been in terms of when and where I was born.

This is a fast and easy read. And I’m glad I ordered it.
