Walter D’Alessandro’s ‘I Was Born in Louisiana‘: A Gripping Psychological Thriller of Transformation and Mystery
About the Book
Inspired by a vivid nightmare, “I Was Born in Louisiana” tells the story of John Reginald Powell, a man whose childhood was filled with sweetness and light but whose life takes a harrowing trajectory. The book opens with a striking scene: a black man walks into a police department, wide-eyed and radiating an aura of madness.
As Powell confesses to murder, his demeanor is unsettling—detached and stunned, rather than repentant. His fragmented memories lead readers through a kaleidoscope of his life, from the innocence of childhood to the brilliance of his youth, and eventually to the dark path that led to his transformation into a killer.
The narrative raises profound questions: Is Powell a kind-hearted man who succumbed to a hidden darkness, or a deeply troubled soul who retains a fragment of innocence? The case unravels in a shocking climax that erupts with the force of a volcano, leaving the police—and readers—grappling with its confusing implications.
About the Author
Born in 1967, Walter D’Alessandro studied at Siena Economic College before embarking on a career in an international banking group. After a decade, he left the corporate world to pursue his passions: travel, history—particularly the Roman Empire—and art.
A seasoned traveler, D’Alessandro has explored cultures far removed from the Western world, enriching his worldview and fueling his creativity. His insatiable curiosity extends to diverse fields, from history and philosophy to esotericism, and he has a particular love for American thrillers.
D’Alessandro began his writing journey in January 2020 with The Great Hoax – A Bad American Story. I Was Born in Louisiana is his second novel, showcasing his ability to weave compelling narratives that explore the complexities of human nature.
The inspiration behind writing this book stems from his deep love for reading. He believes that when one immerses themselves in countless stories and ideas, an innate desire awakens—a yearning to contribute to the vast tapestry of literature. For him, this spark grew into an irresistible urge to create, to weave his own narrative. And sometimes, that 'something' blossoms into a novel.
