Based on true events. My name is Eliot, and I'm a schizophrenic. Yes, I see things that aren't there. Yes, I hear things that aren't real. Yes, I believe in the impossible. And yes, people do believe I am crazy. But let me be the first to tell you my story, dear Reader, please. Then, and only then, can you tell me if I am crazy, or if I'm not.
Kat Merrigan debunks and demystifies preconceived notions about what being a Christian is all about in this book. It poses questions such as: • If you’ve ever doubted God has a sense of humor, have you considered a penguin or a duck-billed platypus? • How do you determine who you really are? • Does being a Christian mean giving up everything? Her goal is to help bring clarity to what it means to follow the Lord and encourage readers to do some investigating of their own. Written from the viewpoint of someone who has been a dedicated Christian for more than twenty-five years, it is an honest, sometimes raw and emotional, but always sincere and hopeful exploration. There are many humorous stories and anecdotes throughout as the author takes the reader along on her journey. Kat also celebrates those that have made a huge difference in her life, such as her sister-in-law, who stood by her side for more than thirty years. She was the one who demonstrated a consistent devotion and dedication to faith, which challenged the author to follow in her footsteps. Faith is a serious commitment and shouldn’t be taken lightly, but it can also be where you find peace, joy, and even hope. All of those things should leave you with a smile on your face!
Just as a photographer might shoot a photo through a colored lens, Wendy Williamson skillfully holds up the filter of mania and depression for her reader to peer through. With heart-wrenching honesty and humor, she shows the effects of bipolar disorder on the mind, body and soul of those who suffer from it. Publisher's Weekly says: "Williamson's prose is direct and thankfully not given to flowery language or circumspectness about her condition. The book is straightforward and the author achieves something difficult in a memoir: she remembers feelings from a period of her life, while still providing distance and perspective. Williamson's analysis of the mental health field and mental health professionals is insightful without being preachy, and she presents her story with grace and humor." National Alliance on Mental Illness' The Advocate: "skillfully weaves together several levels of a young woman's life... [it] is, like its title, an assertion that a life touched by bipolar disorder is still a life with its own logic. The book does a great job at describing that logic."
I never set out to write a book. Initially, writing was my awkward attempt at telling those I love how I was personally, emotionally, physiologically, cognitively, and socially affected by relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). My MS journey began nearly fifteen years before diagnosis. Following the flu many years prior, I dealt intermittently with a multitude of symptoms including seizures, visual obscurities, cognitive challenges, choking issues, loss of balance, muscle spasms, and a myriad of other symptoms. Specialists scratched their heads unable to identify the cause. My experience of a long, drawn-out diagnosis is common among those with this perplexing and often ambiguous disease. Eventually, neurological tests and an MRI revealed "lesions... demyelination... multiple sclerosis." Finally, "it" had a name. Surprisingly, not knowing what was going on all those years was far more exasperating than hearing the actual diagnosis. At least now, I had an answer. Learning all I could about RRMS empowered me to deal more effectively with its unpredictable and haphazard symptoms. I concluded that if I found it challenging to deal with issues ignited by MS, then others must too. If my experiences could help others navigate their way more smoothly through the complex maze of MS, I felt compelled to share them. As my fingers began flying across the keyboard in an effort to write my story, I discovered how difficult it was to be truly open about my journey and the countless symptoms I'd habitually covered for so long. I needed to share it if for no one else's sake but my own. My struggles were showing, and it was becoming more difficult to hide them than it was to live with them openly. I knew the jig was up. Hiding was no longer an option. That's when the writing of this book began.

In this “psychological mind bender,” a Kafkaesque crisis of identity transports a famous actor from 1980s Hollywood to Nazi Germany (The Washington Post). At forty-five, Hollywood film star David Caspian should be basking in his success. Instead, his career is souring as he stresses over the next generation of actors eager to replace him. Losing himself in waking fantasies, David slips through a crack in time, awakening in the back alleys of Hitler’s Berlin. He is no longer David Caspian. He has become Felix, a ruthless black marketeer. With the Gestapo closing in on him, David races against time—and space—as he fights to take control of Felix before Felix takes control of him. Witty, macabre, and utterly thrilling, The Exile is a mesmerizing novel that will leave readers wondering where reality ends and fiction begins. People wrote that when William Kotzwinkle “is the author, readers can be sure only that the book in question will be different from everything else.” But even among the award-winning author’s work, this bracing satire stands out for the sweep of its vision, full of “comedy, despair, horror and technical storytelling delight” (The New York Times Book Review). “The book becomes glued to the reader’s hands as the devastating climactic scenes pile one on another. . . . Powerful writing.” —The Washington Post Book World
