A Frigid Summer: A Memoir Told Through Essays

By Theodora Dagny

Where is God when we suffer? Why do people seem to be surprised when they find out I'm still grieving a loss, even though it's been months or years? Will things ever get easier? These are all questions Theodora Dagny has asked many times in her life and has always been met with subpar answers. People seem to favor overly detached and theological answers to desperation, or they say it's demonic oppression and then get annoyed when they see that prayer isn't "enough to fix all your problems." So she answers them here for the brokenhearted and lost, citing her own experiences in life to craft her memoir: A Frigid Summer.

The essays in this book were written during times of melancholy or deep thought. Some were written when there was tangible hope, others were written in the middle of the night during episodes of depression. Life is not static. And no matter where you are in life, Theodora Dagny hopes you know you are never alone and that you are seen and understood. She's come far enough to be able to lead others toward a light source with her, even though she herself hasn't reached it yet.
