Midst of My Confusion tells the story of a violent and defiant Chicano whose reality in the barrio is intensely brutal. The main character is Joaquin, a young vato who has lived his entire life in the barrio of his small town. But the peace of a small town is short-lived. Fights occur everywhere, so Joaquin and friends he's grown up with all bond together for protection - a gang. His destiny changes during a business trip to Mexico City. Joaquin encounters the effects of exploitation and marginalization of a people, and the forces that struggle to resist. He finds Zapatismo and quickly understands the struggle of Mexicans who fight for human rights and services. He wonders why he never knew about Chiapas. He wonders if he can still do right in his life.

This realistic novel is one of possibilities, of reality as it pulls you into the life of the barrio, the life of a drug trafficker, and the life of a REVOLUTIONARY.

I know the author is Christian with a previously rough background, so I was curious to see where it would go? I learned a little about LA gang culture when I took a class on prisons, so anything that touches on the subject is very interesting to me & this novel highlights the trainwreck of a strong familial culture vs. the ruthless/senseless territorialism of gangs/organized crime. Features no-holds-barred violence, but no cuss words, or explicit sex, so it's passable family friendly as long as you're OK with extreme action. I also loved the history lessons along the way - you can never learn too much history, amen? The novel is a morality tale minus the preaching, so non-Christians need not fear reading it.

Rollercoaster ride not for the faint of heart!

I grew up in Latino communities in Washington state, though this story is fictional! I can say this story is very true as to what goes on in Chicano neiborhoods like David Roacha said the answers to freedom is Found is Jesus Christ! I enjoyed this story very much! Thanks David for another great story I hope to hear more soon! God bless in Jesus name

Even though this book was very intense to listen too, the Story teller made it so real and allowed the story to become real. Very heartfelt..

Amazing book and story
