What people are saying about “20 Years of Winer”:
Winter can be the most savage of the seasons. It is cold, harsh, and unforgiving. During this time, life comes to a standstill, hibernating to the point of near death and existing only deep down, away from the life-threatening conditions. This book, “20 Years of Winter,” follows the author’s spirit through such a season in her own life.
One that rivals 20 years of ravishing winds and frigid temperatures enough to chill to the bones. It was a season of dark and dangerous experiences in her life that sometimes took that very life from her. Her spirit candidly lives through some of the most unimaginable and horrific moments penned along these pages.
This is quite a survival story of one’s soul that evokes the spirit of the polar bear to survive such conditions with little to no resources, the hibernating spirit of the brown bear to disassociate from moments that would otherwise split one’s mind, and the cunningness of the winter hare to prove not to be such an easy prey.
Marie’s spirit and will to survive and fight back in a blizzard of spiritual and epic proportions is inspirational! This is an intense read for even the seasoned reader, but it is worth every moment.
The author faces the worst season of her lifetime and sets fire to the winter to give way to the spring of her soul.
