Tumbleweed and Dreams

Jaime Cruz is a native Californian whose dream of the good life has ended in abject failure. With little more than peanut butter and an old Ranger pickup, he heads to a west Texas town he's only seen in a movie where he longs to find a new life and some glimmer of hope he's ever really known. What he finds in this remote, desert town is a host of characters that slowly work him into their lives as he works them into his own. Jaime can't conceive of a plan for his life-instead he takes each day as it comes. In the captivating, generous and unpretentious lives of the people of his adopted home, he finds that humor, solace, joy and dignity abound.
