A
Quest for Answers: A Personal Journey by Victor M. Vélez.
This book takes you by the hand on a journey into the world
of homelessness. The author’s voice and the homeless voice
draw a profile of the daily struggles of being or experiencing
homelessness. The journey takes you from the external pressures
of living on the streets to the invisible internal thoughts
that wander in silence seeking answers to the most basic of
human needs: food and shelter. To seek, to discover the "humanity,"
to bring it forth through observations and interviews with actual
homeless people was the author’s purpose. This purpose
has been packaged in a collection of original poems and photographs.
"A Quest for Answers: A Personal Journey," is that
collection. |
