Carlos, un inmigrante latinoamericano, emigra en 1993 a Nueva Jersey después de dejar Perú, su país natal, en busca de una oportunidad para el sueño americano. Este libro relata sus aventuras y desventuras mientras descubre que la vida en los Estados Unidos para un inmigrante como él es más complicada de lo que imaginaba. Un día comienza a escribir la crónica de su vida, con la esperanza de brindarles a los recién llegados y a los aspirantes a inmigrantes una historia precisa de la vida en Estados Unidos. Curiosamente, el autor llega a los EE.UU. cuando ocurre el atentado con bomba en el World Trade Center de 1993, sólo para presenciar años después los efectos de los ataques del 11 de septiembre de 2001 desde la distancia, y luego vivir la pandemia de COVID-19 en el área de Nueva York. Su historia personal incorpora así su relato de estos hechos históricos y otros. Un inmigrante astrólogo en Nueva York, Un relato verdadero de la vida en Estados Unidos presenta la historia de Carlos Anaya Mantilla (Perú, 1967) a medida que va de un trabajo a otro, y finalmente se establece como cocinero en la industria restaurantera. Más tarde, descubre otros talentos cuando se convierte en un articulista de opinión invitado para un periódico español, en miembro del reparto secundario que interpreta un pequeño papel en un largometraje y en otros papeles en obras de teatro, como miembro de un grupo cultural peruano con sede en NYC. Carlos también ingresa al campo de la astrología al tomar clases con una reconocida astróloga latina de la ciudad de Nueva York, para convertirse en un conocido astrólogo en el área, conduciendo su programa de radio de astrología y apareciendo en programas de televisión en español para compartir su conocimiento sobre el tema. El autor publicó su primer libro en 2013.
Description in English: Carlos, a Latin American immigrant, arrived in New Jersey in 1993 after leaving Peru, his native country, seeking to get a shot at the American Dream. This book chronicles his adventures and misadventures as he discovers that life in the United States for an immigrant like him is more complicated than he imagined. So, one day he begins writing the chronicles of his life, hoping to give recently-arrived and would-be immigrants an accurate tale of life in America. Interestingly, the author arrived in the U.S. when the 1993 World Trade Center bombing occurred, just to witness the effects of the September 11, 2001 attacks from a distance and then live through the COVID-19 pandemic in the NYC area. His personal story thus incorporates his account of these historical events and others. Un inmigrante astrólogo en Nueva York, Un relato verdadero de la vida en Estados Unidos (An immigrant astrologer in New York, A true account of life in America) presents the story of Carlos Anaya Mantilla (Peru, 1967) as he goes from job to job, and eventually establishing as a cook in the restaurant industry. He discovers more talents when he becomes a guest opinion writer for a Spanish newspaper, a background cast member playing a small role in a feature movie, an actor in other roles in theater plays, and a member of a Peruvian cultural NYC-based group. Carlos also entered the field of astrology by taking classes with a renowned Latina NYC astrologer, later becoming a known astrologer in the area, hosting an astrology radio show, and appearing on a T.V. Spanish show to share his knowledge on the subject. The author published his first book in 2013.
