Heather St Aubin-Stout

    Tato autorka, jejíž zkušenosti zahrnují architekturu, mateřství, učitelství a správu nemovitostí, se ve svém debutovém románu ponořila do osobní cesty přežití. Její memoáry zkoumají, jak víra a rodinné výzvy podpořily její boj s rakovinou prsu. Dílo se také inspiruje vzpomínkami na zkušenosti její matky, která s touto nemocí také bojovala. Tato kniha rezonuje s každým, kdo hledá sílu tváří v tvář nepřízni osudu, a nabízí naději a vytrvalost.
