Newport Beach, California, Author Publishes New Book

"Biography of an Unknown," a new book by Ahmad Al-Sarraf, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

As we go through life, we hear or read about this famous celebrity's life or that public figure's escapades. Though it can be interesting to know something about these famous people, we learn nothing more than skin-deep of what they are truly like.

In her book, the author breezes through the entirety of her existence. As you read, she will guide you through her life, from her childhood in her old country (the country where she was born) to how she came to reside in the United States. And through it all, you will explore with her the colorful traditions of the country of her birth in the Middle East, the places she lived in and stayed at in Europe, until finally settling down in America. Discover with her the multitude of differing thoughts and ways between the Old World and the New World, and how she maintained her own, unique identity despite having lived in both worlds.
