I could see myself literally rewinding; then fast-forwarding my entire experience. I have to admit it revived my perspective and bearings all over. I was surprised that I had somehow become embroiled in the American way of life without putting as much thought to what led me to this point to start with. It was a BRUTE reminder of who I really am. DRY and FAST is how this book cut it!! Well written for any audience that truly wants to appreciate the AFRICAN journey. Akwaaba. Waa yeh adieh !!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. The best book I ever readBy CustomerKosi Tette does an excellent job in portraying the thoughts; thought-processes and the aspirations of the African Immigrant with the undying quest to succeed in America. Anyone in this category cannot help but overwhelmingly agree that Kosi Tette has read their mind. His ability to link events of the past to challenges of the present and to dreams of the future surely make Kosi an outstanding luminary who gives high credence to the image of Africans here in the US. Kosi is surely stepping into the ranks of Anthony Kwame Appiah of Princeton Harvard fame.'Silent Struggle' is so well narrated and studded with analytical and philosophical thoughts that I just couldn't put the book down when I picked it up. And when I was done I was still looking for more to devour!I will like to see a sequel - especially how Kwasi adjusts to the strife the US has had to go through with the economic recession and the terror attacks and what it means to the African Immigrant caught in the middle of all of this which can be hard to comprehend. Once again the trail-blazing skills of Kosi are going to be very well needed for a lot of us for navigating this land of seemingly endless opportunity; if approached the right way.Excellent job. It easily makes 5-Stars!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Excellent book to readBy Albert OppongWhat a brilliant and humorous narration of an immigrant life experience.
