Living, Loving and Other Heresies

This book puts words to moments that take your breath away. Cheeks get sore from smiling, tears flow abundantly. Zsolt grabs the reader and together they pell mell down mountainsides, slip into the chilling warmth of therapy pool and ride in a wheelchair massaging the most from life's offerings. This book expands the heart. It gives a new and welcoming perspective to those we called handicapped, disabled or different. Zsolt drew his last breath just as his beloved Handel's Hallaluah Chorus began to play on December 24, 2005. His disease claimed his body but not his life. You get a rare delectible taste of life from Living, Loving and Other Heresies and you crave for more.

2005 Writers Notes Book Award Winner

Zsolt, a vibrant musician, dancer, and teacher living with progressive neuropathy, is now unable to walk or speak but finds his voice in an engrossing collec-tion of essays. This book is an achievement in itself, the fruit of modern technology and a mind that has grown sharp in the ero-sion of its temple. His voice is deep and contemplative, witty and unrelenting, contrite and worthy. Some of his person-al journal entries are so compact and acute that they read like poetry. He is watching, listening, piecing together our machinations like an intricate puzzle. Not to be missed.
