BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / General
"I WISH SOMEONE WOULD KILL YOU!! I WISH SOMEONE WOULD POISON YOU!! I WISH YOU WOULD GET CANCER!!" Thus starts the dramatic flashback retelling of the author's key life events in From Geek to Chic.
In raw and gripping detail, the author recounts the harsh verbal and emotional abuse that he experienced as a child, its life-lasting effects and its impact in the failure of his marriage.
Despite the harsh and explicit language and the very honest discussions of sexual, psychological, and spiritual issues, there is a level of humor and gentleness that contrasts with the frank subject matter being discussed.
From the depths of despair, through depression, job loss, divorce and fueled by his exquisite emotional agony, the author embarks on a frantic search for meaning and relief from the pain, and tries to discover, through tears and song, a part of himself that he had lost many years ago.
