About the Event
The memoir pieces together the events of Carlos' struggles as a young man as he juggles the demands of a growing family and business and the challenges that continually threaten his family's welfare, including the constant call of the racetrack that Carlos fights to ignore! A well-written and immersive read, Gregory's memoir is a testament to the strength, stamina, and determination of one family's journey, and one man's struggle to overcome the challenges that threaten to derail his efforts and ultimately separate him from the people he loves.
Join us for an evening of readings from family members, some of which are featured in the book who will share their versions of the events Greg has written about. It will be an interesting mix of versions as they share their memories of the patriarch, Carlos Dias.
