Publisher Description:
"Angels Over Me" portrays the story of Danielito, a Dominican boy, who was brought to New York by his mother at age 15 firmly believing that he would flourish in the academic arena in the U.S. Sadly, in a series of unforeseen events, Danielito's thirst for learning quickly vanishes and is replaced by an irresistible force of becoming part of the street life. He joins a gang and, before long, he is caught up in a world of gambling, alcohol, and drugs. He spends 17 years of his life in this ambiance until a devastating personal loss brings him back to his roots and awakens the long dormant desire of learning and doing the right thing in life. Even then, Danielito continues to be torn between the street world and the intellectual realm.
