After she runs out of money, and faced with a clash of two cultures, Wanjiru Warama realizes she is going to be in America for a while. People tell her she’s brave and adventurous for coming to America without knowing anybody. But in Entangled in America, she is just an immigrant young woman from Kenya who struggles through employment and business to earn a living and find her niche in the American society. The inspirational story is told with brutal honesty, a distinct voice, and wit without holding back on the occasional vulnerability and naivety of the author. At times, Ms. Warama reaches back to her experience in Kenya to help the reader see the parallelism between Kenyan and American cultural social issues like prejudice and its root, and how to eliminate or minimize it. Among other topics, she discusses the ins and outs of real estate business, where she worked as a real estate broker for over twenty years. Experience an American life from a different perspective.
