The 238-page book had a destination-style launch in Kuwait near the iconic Kuwait Towers - at the hands of popular Goans Agnello Fernandes, Bosco Leitao, and Carmo Santos, well-known for their involvement in the social and sports field.
‘Migrate Goa’, a fiction book, contains 4 amazing stories – entwined in satirical humor and compelling ideology.
Revealing the launch on his birthday, author Mr. Crasto stated, “The ‘title’ story of ‘Migrate Goa’ gives an insight into what the impending dawn could bring to one of the most loved and visited places in India and the world over – 𝙈𝙮 𝙂𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙂𝙤𝙖.”
‘First Night’, ‘Plots for sale in beautiful Goa’, and ‘Every heart has a story’ are other stories in the book. Gasper has fondly dedicated the book to his loving brother and sister – Gabriel Crasto and Candida Madeira.
Crasto, further added, “The stories stand for every human, more importantly for the universal Goan – particularly those who are abroad – for their emotions, their desires and expectations.”
This is Gasper Crasto’s second book after his short novel ‘A rose is not just a rose,’ available on Amazon since 2018.
Expressing his intention behind the book, Crasto said “Goan readers need to understand that much literature is produced by authors from other states, but little by Goans. This book is my effort in this regard.”

Having a flair for playing football right from his school days, Gasper got to play for one of the top clubs in India, Salgaocar FC, and dazzled for the club for 8 seasons all across India.
Having an engineering background, he opted to go abroad and has been working in Kuwait since 1999.
Apart from writing, Gasper is a singer and compere and demonstrates his wit and humor at many events – both in his mother tongue Konkani and in English.
Gasper runs a web-blog called gaspersWorld where he regularly pens down news and views, articles, stories, etc, on different subjects. Most of his articles are published on various websites or reproduced by newspapers.
Happily married, Gasper lives in Kuwait with his wife Esparansa and daughter Angel.
