Andre Bergner is convinced he will one day change the world.
Driven by this motivation, he quits his job as a private client banker to work for the Global Bank, a prestigious organization founded on the premise of ending poverty. But he quickly discovers that corruption swirls around much of the work they do and before he knows it, Andre settles in and becomes one of them.
But everything changes when Andre's wife is diagnosed with terminal cancer. He is unable to fully cope with this devastating reality and deals with it the only way he knows how: with alcohol. As his wife's health deteriorates, Andre's world crashes in around him. His career is a sham, and the love of his life is failing in front of his eyes.
Will he ever be able to recover his values and truly make a difference? Or has he already lost his soul to the darkness?
For fans of The Bell Jar or Death of a Salesman, The Broken Dreamer is a riveting tale about dreams, destiny, and purpose.
