| Publisher Description: A beautiful university campus in Davis, a small university town in California. A young student away from her home in Southern California who needs help writing computer programs for her class. A foreign born computer scientist who has traveled thousand of miles at the young age of 21 to design computers which can imagine and is working as a teaching assistant at the university. An old world romantic confused by the new definition of love in the brave new world. A true story which is better than any fiction. It begins as a story of an ambitious young man traveling to a land far away from his home to fulfill his ambitions. It unfolds in the fast moving technology world of Silicon Valley. From there we hop to San Francisco and land in Southern California, where we hold our breath as our narrator survives the infamous wildfires. Technology. Art. Wit. Ambition. Humor. Imagination. They all come together in this wonderful tale of a man's journey though space, time, life and love. Winner of the 2009 Young Reader Views Award in Young Adults (Multicultural books) Category. |
