Produktbeschreibung
The Boy Named Boy is a raw, unflinching memoir of abandonment, identity, survival, and self-discovery. Found crying alone in an abandoned house, Ernesto Cuevas entered the world unnamed and unclaimed-a newborn without a past. Adopted by a Mexican-American family, raised in silence, and burdened with secrets no child should carry, he grew up navigating racism, rejection, and the aching void of not knowing who he truly was. This is the story of a man who searched for his roots through decades of pain, military service, music, and healing. From bar fights to battle zones, from haunting silence to soulful songs, Ernesto's journey proves that even those forgotten by the world can leave a legacy that lasts. Brutally honest and deeply human, The Boy Named Boy is for anyone who's ever felt lost in their own story-and dared to write a new one.
Autorenporträt
Ernesto Cuevas is a storyteller, musician, Army veteran, and survivor of a childhood shaped by abandonment, silence, and resilience. Born in California and adopted as an infant, he was raised in a home where love was complicated and belonging was never guaranteed. After serving honorably in the United States Army-including time in Berlin during the Cold War-Ernesto returned home not only with scars, but with a deeper need to find out who he truly was. His journey to uncover the truth about his origins led him to lost siblings, shocking revelations, and ultimately, peace.
