My Alien Origin is an intriguing fish out of water story from outer space. An alien named Lyrad has his mind magically transferred inside the mind of a dying human baby boy named Daryl. The alien grows within his young black host's body and experiences the true meaning of family, and he adjusts to sharing his consciousness with the black child, who miraculously has survived. Lessons are learned by Lyrad as he is confronted by the budding Civil Rights movement in New York City. As Lyrad discovers firsthand the meaning of the words discrimination and prejudice, Daryl comes to understand the meaning of despair and hopelessness. Together they learn to find happiness despite their despair, the way black folks have done for generations.

(About the Author)

Like the character in the book, Daryl Elmore was born in Harlem and later migrated to the lower east side of Manhattan. "Growing up on the Lower East Side showed me the meaning of the phrase 'The Melting Pot.' It was the only place in New York where you could find good soul food, Chinese food, pizza, or knish in the same neighborhood." This is the author's first book, and he is working on the sequel. "I wanted to tell a story of life in New York during the sixties, seventies, and eighties. The tremendous political and scientific advances that all Americans endured were incredible. It was an incredible era to grow up in and I felt it was being overlooked."
