In Search of Other Skies

Anyone who has emigrated to a different country––or thought about it––looking for a new life and love, cannot help but identify with Chris Steers’ compelling story. Though written like a novel––with some degree of license––the author is narrating a piece of his own life, adding the occasional anecdotal aside to the audience. The reader will share the author’s pain, laugh with him, cry with him, feel anger and sorrow with him. Although the events in “In Search of Other Skies” take place in the space of one month (September 2015), the story spans a far greater time period as the author reflects on past experiences in his life, emotions he has gone through and people who have influenced him. It is a personal journey across physical and cultural boundaries and one man’s pursuit of love and happiness in a new country.
