After working for years in the fields of Oregon and becoming a U.S. citizen, Ranulfo started making plans to buy a small bakery in 2005. But not knowing if the economy would hold steady, Ranulfo examined his dreams every morning in search of secret clues foretelling insight and a successful bakery--or homelessness. Ranulfo also enlisted author Peter Wogan, a white anthropology professor with a penchant for self-doubt, as his confidante and sidekick in this quest. Readers won't know until the end whether Ranulfo became another innocent victim of the Financial Crisis of 2008, but, throughout, they will see Ranulfo and Peter confront naysayers and cheats, as well as their own differences and fears. Like \u003ci\u003eDon Quixote\u003c\/i\u003e, this book is comical, subversive, and inspirational. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Wogan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319848623\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319848624\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.51d","brand":"Peter Wogan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47087729148159,"sku":"9783319848624","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ce708b3-a691-4eb8-98d2-6830115f9850.jpg?v=1753850626","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/corner-store-dreams-and-the-2008-peter-wogan-9783319848624","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
