Through his descriptive and engaging writing style, Michael De Gale does an excellent job immersing the reader in his thoughts.  As a result, I was taken on an almost spiritual journey from the tropical shores of Trinidad to the freezing and unforgiving landscape of Canada.  Through it all, Michael gives an invaluable glimpse into the mind of a Caribbean immigrant making the terrifying (but exciting) leap into the unknown.  Great read!
