HTML:<b>From the bestselling author of <i>Women Rowing North</i> and <i>Reviving Ophelia-</i>a memoir in essays reflecting on radiance, resilience, and the constantly changing nature of reality.</b><b><br /></b><br /> In her luminous new memoir in essays, Mary Pipher-as she did in her <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <i>Women Rowing North</i>-taps into a cultural moment, to offer wisdom, hope, and insight into loss and change. Drawing from her own experiences and expertise as a psychologist specializing in women, trauma, and the effect of our culture on our mental health, she looks inward in <i>A Life in Light</i> to what shaped her as a woman, one who has experienced darkness throughout her life but was always drawn to the light.<br /> <br /> Her plainspoken depictions of her hard childhood and life's difficulties are dappled with moments of joy and revelation, tragedies and ordinary miseries, glimmers and shadow. As a child, she was separated from her parents for long periods. Those separations affected her deeply, but in <i>A Life in Light</i> she explores what she's learned about how to balance despair with joy, utilizing and sharing with readers every coping skill she has honed during her lifetime to remind us that there is a silver thread of resilience that flows through all of life, and that despite our despair, the light will return.<br /> <br /> In this book, she points us toward that light.
