Heather King Libri

La scrittura di Heather King naviga nel complesso terreno dell'esperienza umana. Descrive il suo lavoro come "la tragicomedia della croce", esplorando argomenti che vanno dalla dipendenza e dalle crisi vocazionali alla conversione, al cibo, al denaro, al cancro, all'amore non corrisposto, alla preghiera e alla guarigione dall'aborto. King attinge al suo viaggio personale, segnato da anni di alcolismo, sobrietà e una conversione al cattolicesimo. I suoi saggi e le sue memorie offrono un mix unico di vulnerabilità e acuta intuizione.

When I lost the love of my life, the pain was indescribable. I moved just before it all happened so was away from all my friends, who although sympathetic could not imagine how afraid and lonely I was. I found a counsellor through friends and was able to express my fears and anger. He suggested that I might find a way of expressing all those feelings on paper. I did and it came out as poetry, now printed in this book. It is my wish that others going through the worst time of their lives might find comfort in the poems.
