Review on Running Dreams by Carlos Serván posted on Literary Titan:

Running Dreams by Carlos Servan is a story about determination and following your goals. The author details his life with the Peruvian army and the important choices he makes to dedicate his life to an important role, with physical and mental fitness preparation and a focused mindset. He realizes his dreams when he enters his first year as a cadet at the School of Officers for the Peruvian Investigation Police, entering his first patrol, which changes his life.

This book begins with the author’s childhood, where his dreams center around protecting his country, which would eventually become realized and change the direction of his life in unexpected and sometimes dangerous ways. I appreciated the amount of effort spent on detailing childhood memories, which creates a clear picture of Servan’s personality, family relations, Peruvian background, and ambition.

I found the book to be deeply moving and impactful, as the author details not only his rise to success within his early adulthood but the challenges he faces and his ability to cope. There is sincere openness throughout the book, which gives readers a sense of Servan’s personality and impressive resilience as a hero. This stirring memoir gives readers a sense of inspiration and understanding about the author and his incredible journey.

Running Dreams is a beautifully written story about strength and determination. Carlos Servan has written a fantastic memoir that instills hope and faith in readers through an incredible story that will keep you engaged from the very start.

I have had the pleasure of working with Carlos Serván Triveño for almost 7 years. I’ve always admired his perseverance with coming to America after he lost his vision and hand in an accident in Peru. He learned English and graduated with his JD once he immigrated. His book about his life is coming out next month. I’ve put the information below. Congratulation to Carlos!

For a world recovering from a paralyzing pandemic, this book
reminds us of the power of hope, determination, courage, and the
value of supportive friendships.
Running Dreams is a memoir of a man raised in a humble, hardworking family, outside Lima, Peru, at a time of great national
political, economic, and social instability. Readers glimpse into the
author’s formative years to discover the values and life lessons
impressed on him by his family. In an instant, a gr***de explosion
severs his right hand and blinds him. With scant prospects, he leaves
his family and true love to immigrate to the United States, facing a
future alone. Beating the odds, he acquires the blindness skills, new
culture, and new language necessary to pursue a college education,
find a meaningful career, and build a purposeful life
We join Carlos in a treacherous, exhilarating journey to the United
States, where he experiences continuous setbacks, but unexpected
open hearts and hands restore him. He single-handedly battles
hunger, poverty, homelessness, loneliness, prejudice, betrayal,
language barriers, and immigration pitfalls.
In Running Dreams, we experience the creation of an exceptional life of purpose and meaning. Those who cherish happy endings will not be disappointed.
