Norma Jean's Sun: True Story
Norma Jean's Sun ( Based on a True Story )

"A Wonderful commentary on the very things that make us all human" "Brave honesty of confession, makes the book unique" "Touching story, full of hope" The story is not only convincingly true, but will rivet the reader with its genuine and unassuming pathos. It is this kind of brave honesty of confession and growing philosophy that makes the book unique.

Miraculous tale of how a boy, born into unimaginable physical and emotional pain and destined to be a misfit, finds his way in a world of "others." Few could survive so many torturous years of surgical intervention and a ensuing lifelong struggle with drugs and alcohol addiction and come out ahead. This moving tale reveals not only the struggle and heartrending elements of generational lives "gone wrong," but also the love and growth of a human being overcoming the odds and determined to find a way to live life to the fullest. Based on a true story, the author's unapologetic prose prompts enduring ethical questions and makes a gripping, personal read. Norma Jean's Sun is painfully reflective yet ultimately hopeful, a story told through the eyes of a boy who believes he has been mistakenly born into the world and a man who conquers physical and emotional injustice--and thrives. The reader will be challenged to answer the difficult questions of right and wrong as they may apply to his or her own life. It is clear that it is the hope of this author that the reader's conclusions will lead to a more fulfilled view of the "parallel beauty that lives just beneath the surface for us all."

This story highlights the thousands of family dynamics that center on not only disabilities, but the taboo subject matter visible or implied. As a child, I wrote the first page of this tale at 12. All along knowing my life and the circumstances had a powerful content. As an adult, the lessons obtained have given me creative energy & awareness to share this message. My desire is to bring light and benefit to the millions who have lived and silently equaled in experiences similar to my own! Many Matriarchs, Patriarchs and Children survive this day who understand and who wish share their story and find mutual alliance.
