ADOBE DREAMS is a culmination of deep contemplation and inquiry in terms of one's life, that interchanges between son and mother. The story is set in the quaint Taos, New Mexico mountains, the narrator of the story is trying to come to terms with the events that have affected his life, which appears to center on the dreams he had about his mother and the era of his birth, which she admits was unexpected, the late 1960s and early 1970s during the Vietnam War. Interspersed with a collection of childhood memories of his mother and her reactions after finding out about his father's death in Vietnam, the narrator attempts to piece together each link to understand and solve the distress he may have been feeling about his mother. The story delves into his humble middle-class upbringing, and gives readers an inkling of his supportive role after the loss of his father. ADOBE DREAMS is an insightful book that uses memory and history as a backdrop. And with that, the story is refined and interesting. Indeed, it is a book worth reading."
