The Fortune Teller's Prophecy

A Memoir of an Unlikely Doctor
A searing examination of the immigrant experience, The Fortune Teller’s Prophecy is Lally Pia’s tale of resilience in the face of a bungled Green Card—a four-continent quest to fulfill her dream of becoming a doctor.
When a military coup in Ghana leads to the abrupt closure of Lally Pia's medical school, she is left stranded there, thousands of miles away from her family in California, with no educational prospects or money. Adding to her turmoil is her discovery that her American Green Card has been botched, which means she has no country to call home. But a Sri Lankan priest told Lally that she would one day become a 'Doctor of Doctors' - and she is intent on proving him right. This sizzling multicultural roller coaster illustrates the power of self-determination as Lally, a young immigrant with a drive to succeed, takes on obstacle after obstacle - an abusive relationship, the welfare state, and a gruesome job where she has to dismember human bodies - in order to fulfill her dreams. A story that will resonate with anyone who has faced cultural and immigration hardships, The Fortune Teller's Prophecy is a nail-biting journey across continents, through hardships, and into ultimate triumph.
