Sarfraz Manzoor belonged to mediocre muslin family living in England. On June 25 1988 Sarfraz met with first Bruce Springsteen concert. He was living with his traditional parents who considered themselves overprotective there in Luton. Sarfraz liked the advance course in Springsteen studies. He liked the lyric songs of Bruce which changed his life in a different way to win in future. Since that time Springsteen has been constant and proved to be soundtrack of Sarfraz adult life.
Being the fan of Bruce, he writes about the American culture in his writing. Sarfraz Manzoor embraced the opportunities of freedom that he perceived in United States. He loved the United States and wanted to visit top city there but the incident of World Trade Center made him disappointing when Muslims were declared responsible for this happening. He appeals much American as compared to Britain where he was living because he had much attraction of American people.
