The Perpetual Migrant : Finding My Way from Abundance in Poverty to Poverty of Abundance
Bok av Juzar Ali
The Perpetual Migrant is story of a spirit constantly on the move. Inspired as a memoir primarily for his grandchildren, family, and friends, this personal narrative reflects Juzar Ali's experience and observations in post-partition era in Pakistan. He takes the reader through the ups and downs of his life and his experiences across the world. The book is his journey to his roots and through the challenges of a migrant family. Growing up amid poverty with enclaves of abundance within this poverty, the author recounts in this autobiography the migration back and forth to and from USA. As he does so, he observes poverty amid the abundance around him in the US and sees this impacting the most in health care in which he has been intrinsically embedded throughout his life. These pockets of poverty in the US are not necessarily due to limited resources but more because of lack of commitment and dysfunctional priorities we have at an individual, societal, and national level.
