Synopsis

The Invisible Bridge; Volume I (Hazel 1930-1993) is an uplifting and inspiring read made for our times by the author Alberto Bueno Vanegas. Whether you are an immigrant or descendant of immigrants, or a person with a disability such as Aphasia or condition that has impacted your family or personal life leaving you feeling disconnected or isolated, this book serves as a bridge for connection, insight, and social interaction. The author himself represents both situations and the book serves as a testament to will, faith, and belief in making a dream possible to help unite, while rendering a voice to those without one.

The historical fiction narrative of 81 sequential, short stories is told from the author’s memory as a young boy living in Colombia, South America and as a young adult living in the United States when his father Hazel, a Latin-American immigrant, relayed the stories covering the years of 1931-1993 up to when he passed away in Miami at the age of 99.

The recollections are authentic, adventurous, real-life anecdotes relating to Hazel's life when he emigrated to Buenaventura, (on Colombia's Pacific Coast) during the Great Depression in search for opportunities; settling in and serving as a port store owner, becoming the town's commissioner in the midst of migrant resettlement from Europe to Latin America, traveling overseas contracted as a spy for the American Government during the Nazi Regime and more. Think Hazel's character as a mix of 'old world' values dressed in the persona of 007 meets Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The book serves as in inspirational bridge to show readers there are no barriers that the human will cannot cross. The stories light a path towards the recognition and value of the cultural richness that a multicultural, multi-ethnic, multi-racial, and multi-faith society, working toward the common good exemplifies. Diversity and inclusion allow growth, education, adaptation, and creative resourcefulness and The Invisible Bridge, demonstrates that.

With Alberto's own life, the journey of a man and an immigrant's legacy continues for our times. “All of us can make a difference and create impact in our society, community, families, and life. We can use our story and voice to create bridges that bring hope, care, dignity, respect, and love to all in need and the generations to come.” -Alberto Bueno Vanegas

We hope this book serves to ignite a spark of emotion and vision within you to use your voice to serve others.
