Heather King Bücher

Heather Kings Schriften bewegen sich im komplexen Gelände menschlicher Erfahrung. Sie beschreibt ihre Arbeit als "die Tragikomödie des Kreuzes", die Themen von Sucht und beruflichen Krisen bis hin zu Bekehrung, Essen, Geld, Krebs, unerwiderter Liebe, Gebet und Heilung nach einer Abtreibung behandelt. King schöpft aus ihrer eigenen Reise, die von Jahren der Alkoholsucht, Nüchternheit und einer Konversion zum Katholizismus geprägt ist. Ihre Essays und Memoiren bieten eine einzigartige Mischung aus Verletzlichkeit und scharfer Einsicht.

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.
