Overview
Journey Back Into the Vault invites people to travel with author Mario Cartaya back to the land of his birth for the first time in fifty-six years as he seeks to reclaim his forgotten childhood memories, original identity, and once-promised destiny. Join Mario as he searches for the now faded footprints he once left behind in the homes, school, and playgrounds of the first nine years of his life in 1950s Cuba before Fidel Castro came into power and his family became political exiles. Help him honor the grandparents, uncles, and aunts he never saw again at their final resting place, and meet family members he never knew existed. Laugh, sigh, and cry during the many unforeseen experiences, astonishing events, and serendipitous moments that would forever change his life. Enjoy the improbable story of a courageous journey aimed at breaching a subconscious vault once built to store the difficult memories of a childhood usurped, destiny denied, and loving family forever separated by geopolitical events. Journey Back Into the Vault is the story of those psychological forces that help define humans, the power of enduring hope, and how by achieving purity of heart, reconciliation, and a soul at rest, people can evolve into better versions of themselves-a universal message of love and enlightenment that can only begin with each individual's search for self-actualization and inner peace.

Author Information
Mario Cartaya was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1951. Eight years later, the turbulent winds of political change swept over the land of his birth, leaving his family with little choice but to emigrate to the United States. In the US, he realized his Cuban childhood dreams of becoming an architect and founded a forty-three-year highly acclaimed architectural firm in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. His story and award-winning architectural designs were entered into the United States Congressional Record of the House of Representatives in 2019. An American flag was flown over the US Capitol to celebrate his legacy in 2022. Mario has now turned his attention to writing books. His fresh voice and humanist values will refresh one’s soul, and his book, Journey Back Into the Vault, will leave one laughing, sighing, and crying with him in a roller coaster of emotions.
