Sobre este título
He left Jamaica chasing the American Dream—and found out it came with fine print.
In From JAMROCK to THE ROCK, Theo Drackett turns culture shock into comedy, chronicling his journey from Point Hill to America with wit as quick as island rain. Through hilarious childhood stories, sharp social observations, and moments of unexpected tenderness, he reveals what it really means to trade mango trees for mortgages and sunshine for “foreign” snow.
From Aunt Vera’s unfiltered wisdom to Uncle Sam’s taxes, Drackett captures the humor, hustle, and heart of Caribbean life abroad. This is not just a story about leaving home—it’s about carrying it with you, one laugh at a time.
Fans of Trevor Noah’s Born a Crime and Barack Obama’s Dreams from My Father will love this funny, fearless, and deeply human memoir about roots, resilience, and the fine print of the American Dream.
