What is the American Dream? What lurks behind those words? The American Dream has a different meaning to everyone, based on their life experience and personal desires. Join a brave, bold Polish immigrant as she journeys to America, the Promised Land, chasing her American Dream. From the cookie-cutter houses of suburbia to the frenetic streets of New York City to California. From Au Pair to sous chef to tour guide-and everything else in between, Maggie pursues her destiny from coast to coast, where her journey finally leads her to a place she never imagined.
At first, I wasn’t sure if I had a book. But I did have a story. I believe that everyone has a story, and this is mine. I hope it will touch people. Teach people. I hope it will speak to you and others so that their own life path makes more sense to them by reading about mine and where it has led me. Into other people’s arms, other people’s beds, bad jobs, good jobs, terrible relationships and wonderful ones, to a quirky marriage, to disease. It propelled me into life-changing situations. And back home again. Think of it as “The Travails of Maggie” or “The Perils of Promiscuousness.” This is my journey, through sex and yoga, and everything else in between. I’m glad you’re along for the ride. Hold on tight!
