Described by readers as intense, deeply inspirational, and a true page-turner, "Persist, Persist, Persist" unfolds like a captivating movie right before your eyes.


In a world that often dismisses the pursuit of dreams as a mere luxury, for Junior, it was an all-out war between life and death.


Growing up in the heart of poverty in Haiti, a world vividly described in this memoir, Junior embarked on an unprecedented journey-from surviving a heart-wrenching car crash to desperate street begging in the Dominican Republic. Then came the Haiti earthquake, a relentless force that snuffed out over 200k lives in less than 60 seconds.


And if you think you've heard it all, think again. What lies ahead in these pages takes "persistence" to a whole new dimension-a story so gripping, so raw, that you need to read it to believe it.


"Persist, Persist, Persist" is not just a memoir; it's an electrifying, can't-put-it-down chronicle that immerses you in Junior's thrilling journey and unveils Haiti's narrative in a revolutionary light. A timeless tale of obsession, survival, and self-invention, intricately woven with the unforgiving twists of fate.


Brace yourself for a narrative that will make you lose track of time and demand to be shared with everyone you know.
