{"product_id":"a-long-way-from-havana-mj-buendia-9781478728009","title":"A Long Way from Havana","description":"A tale of deadly obsession that knows absolutely no boundaries. Every life is a book. Some become bestsellers; others linger on bookstore shelves, collecting dust. Mike Bonilla's life started out as a dust collector-that is, until he met the woman who would become the best and the worst thing to happen to him. Mike's story begins in 1961, when his well-to-do Cuban family is forced to flee Castro's island prison and take refuge in America. A Long Way From Havana covers the universal experience of exile in a foreign land from the viewpoint of a young boy who is suddenly yanked from his coddled childhood into a harsh existence where nothing is familiar, including the language. Mike is forced to adapt in order to survive-but will the cost of success in his new life shatter his concept of decency and morality? I had always thought of myself as a good person, one with moral boundaries that could not be crossed under any circumstances. I firmly believed in doing the right thing no matter the consequences. In fact, I know now that I am no better, and probably much worse, than most. A literary gem packing a hefty emotional punch, A Long Way From Havana will leave readers examining their own moral compasses and obsessions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mj Buendia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1478728000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478728009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Outskirts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/22\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Mj Buendia","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47452709617919,"sku":"9781478728009","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_04c0120d-dc2d-4021-a603-83c9a3bb3cdc.jpg?v=1761930039","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-long-way-from-havana-mj-buendia-9781478728009","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
