The Friend of My Mind: A Love Story
"Written by a man about the woman he loved with all his soul is healing. We NEED more books and works like these."
-Jessica Coates, victims of abuse advocate

During the week of mourning Gil opened the blue crate she never agreed to unpack. He discovered her poems of passion and erotic enjoyment with previous lovers. The family was shocked, but the secret consumed him in a tumultuous whirlwind. He hid it until the family left. Then, he let the verses, like Satan bites, scramble his dreams, twist his grief. He did not eat, headaches detained him. By keeping silent about what led her to carnal passion, she obscured how the wounds of their betrayals still permeated her soul and snuck into their relationship.

Friend of My Mind is a two-part dialogue between a man and his departed spouse. He writes the letter she wanted to pen-
their love story from her perspective. In part two, he recounts his own journey to love - 'careloving' face to face with her death, and himself.

Across Paris, Jamaica, Jerusalem and America, the story climbs to "Friend of The Mind" as the response beyond distrust, prior toxic relationships, financial inequality, and gender bias.
