On the surface Petrone had it all: a family, a budding writing career, a successful marriage. But she was desperately lonely, and dealing with the life and death of her alcoholic mother and the ghosts of her own suicidal past. Here she takes us on her journey from loss into renewed life. Writing from a universally understood place of struggle, Petrone provides a timeless reminder to world-weary readers that, just as birth follows death, light does indeed follow darkness. Often it is because of our pain-- and not despite it-- that we grow, survive, and thrive. -- adapted from jacket

Autorenporträt
Liz Petrone is a true believer in the healing power of storytelling. A suicide survivor and a recovering anorexic, she found unprecedented support and community in telling intimate stories that speak to the lessons learned in survival and recovery. She's built that community into a safe space for her readers to gather and speak openly and honestly about their own struggles. Today, she's an author, blogger, speaker, and survivor. She shares her stories on lizpetrone.com, and lives in a creaky old house in Syracuse, New York, with her ever-patient husband, their four children, and an excitable dog named Beau.
