When Geneive sees her husband's submarine depart its home port, she knows she won't hear Ben's voice or feel his touch for nearly a year. What she can't foresee is the intensity of the pain and loneliness that will ensue-for both of them. While he is suspended in a steel tube, hundreds of feet below the ocean's surface, life at home moves forward with a vengeance-silence intensifying every void of Ben's absence. This is a couple's true story, told through their emails and journal entries, of how they endure and survive the toughest journey of their young lives. The extended separation tests their commitment and love-nearly to the breaking point-as they navigate through personal tragedies, legal struggles, loss and death. Letters from Zulu rings with the authentic voices of two people overcoming crushing adversity, only to discover the unshakeable bond that forms between a man and a woman committed to their love...
Autorenporträt
I am a Navy Wife. Letters from Zulu was a labor of love that took four and a half years to come to fruition. I worked on the book between moves around the country and raising three young children. I am honored to have recently placed at the 2016 Los Angeles Book Festival for my work. The memoir is a true account of my time as an attorney and single mother, safe in my civilian world, when I met and fell in love with my submariner now-husband. Our new marriage inconveniently coincided with his nearly year-long deployment at sea on a fast-attack submarine. During his time away, many events transpired, some even tragic. I was able to email "Ben" on his boat, and he in turn kept a daily journal about his life on the sub, as all I was able to hear was silence from the other end. Over the past years, I lined up the letters chronologically to tell our story from both of our perspectives. The result is Letters from Zulu.
