Book Overview
What if the greatest love story you will ever read began with a chance phone call, a shared passion for the skies, and forty-three years of adventure at 40,000 feet?
In Life at 40,000 Feet, Lawrence Bodner delivers an unflinchingly honest memoir of a life shaped by history, hardship, and an extraordinary love. Born the son of a Holocaust survivor, tested by a lifelong battle with Type 1 diabetes, and wounded by betrayal in business and a painful divorce, Lawrence believed his hardest chapters were behind him. Then a friend handed him a list of phone numbers, and the third call changed everything.
Fran was a Delta Air Lines flight attendant with a spirit as boundless as the skies she crossed. Together, they built a marriage defined by devotion, gourmet dinners, spontaneous escapes, and a lifetime of travel, from the Concorde to the Orient Express, from Caribbean hideaways to the villages of New Zealand.
