A Fine first Printing of the First Edition housed in a Fine dust-jacket; Salvador is a masterful exploration of the American dream and its many failures. The novel follows the story of a young, idealistic Central American immigrant named Juan Salvador, as he navigates the dangerous and often corrupt waters of the American dream. From the outset, Salvador is beset by obstacles: his family is poor, he lacks English skills, and he struggles to find a place in a new and often hostile country. But Juan Salvador never gives up, and over time he builds a successful career as a journalist. However, as he nears the top of his game, Juan Salvador begins to realize that the American dream is nothing more than a myth. He watches as his friends and colleagues fall victim to the ruthless competition of American life, and he eventually discovers that the only way to succeed in America is to become a complete stranger to its ideals. Salvador is a powerful and moving novel that explores the enduring power of the American dream and the dangers of chasing after a false ideal.; 8vo; 108 pages .
