Lorenzo ChavezFor as long as he can remember Lorenzo has been an observer, an explorer, and a storyteller.​As a young boy and inspired by old Hollywood movies such as Robin Hood or Prince Valiant, he penned extraordinary tales of heroes rescuing loved ones i distress. ​But most of all, he cherished writing about the summers at his maternal grandparent's farm where no one bullied him and no man ever desired him. ​Alone there, surrounded by Cuba's beautiful countryside, away from the chaos of his Havana home, he would discover his perseverance and strength.He arrived in New York City at seventeen after a two-year exile in Spain without any money, not knowing the language, and lacking the skills to step into a world unlike anything that he had ever known.

M. Forster's A Room with a View. Read More Read Less
