The Flying Boy


Book Description

A record of one man's journey to find his "true masculinity" and his way out of co-dependent and addictive relationships. It's a book for all men and women who grew up in dysfunctional families and are now ready for some fresh insights into their past and their pain. It's a story about feelings - losing them, finding them and finally expressing them. Here you will find people you know; will discover a way out of the pain and see that it really is OK to express yourself without fear. The book is about grieving, a very misunderstood process often confused with self-pity. Open the doors to understanding - men will understand themselves and each other, and women will more deeply understand men, learn how to be with wounded men and still take care of themselves.

Wounded Heart in Flight


Book Description

Drawing on the successes of her previous books, this novel by Dr. Murray again echoes the maxim that art holds up a mirror to life. Her literary brushstrokes clearly carry the reader through a brilliantly realistic flow of life that each of us can recognize and relate to. Anne R. Murray was born and raised near Atlanta in Marietta, Georgia, to well-educated parents who adhered closely to the Christian ethos typical of natives in that part of the nation. Motivated by the challenges of helping others, Anne became a successful high school teacher there. She increased her skill and ability in the classroom by earning a doctorate degree in education from which she eventually took a well-earned retirement. Like her previous works, this is an easy read that holds the attention while taking one on a roller coaster through lifes turmoil in a hick Midwestern town. The details that she paints make it easy for the reader to identify with the characters, scenes, and situations that make up the challenges for Julia, the story's central character, of American Indian heritage. May you too enjoy the panoramic view of life that Wounded Heart in Flight paints as you read the latest work from this delightful author. vanLee Hughey, Author of You Could Be at Sea Dance Hosting and Youd Be Arrested If You Werent on the Dance Floor
