Publisher's Summary

Once upon a Time in America: The True Tale of an Immigrant is the debut manuscript from Karl Talla. This coming of age story follows Talla from his early years as an immigrant in the United States, to the highs and lows he experienced as he made his way in the world. With America as its backdrop, this transparent piece of literature gives us a fly on the wall view of how an immigrant family dealt with everything from the tragic events of 9/11, to the election of America's first Black president, Barack Obama. The audiobook also grants the listener an insight into the life of a millennial of African descent, surviving through Donald Trump's MAGA era. This publication holds up a mirror to an entire generation, giving us all the opportunity to face ourselves and the times we are living in with great subtlety.
