Customer Reviews

Remembering

To go on an inward journey takes courage....courage to remember, feel, experience and heal. This is the journey that Patricia Kowal has taken me on by sharing Sam's story. Beautifully, yet simply written Stillpoint touched my soul, giving me permission to quietly breath in life with its pain and joy. This is a book to read more than once, to pass onto to my children and friends. Thank you Patricia for your soulfulness and wisdom.

Thought-provoking look at one's own life

The wording on the back cover drew me in and then the book itself just blew me away. Stillpoint, a turning point in one's life, a pause for reflection, a comma - what appropriate applications to my own life and the lives of so many people I know. Through the eyes and mind of Sam Barsby I saw his life unfold and with it, so many similarities to my own. Ms Kowal also took me to places I'd never been and gave me a history lesson I'd never heard about in school. (I guess learning about how people suffered in the "depression" is not a particlarly popular topic.) There were so many other "lessons" succinctly taught in "Stillpoint" that I'll be thinking about the content for a long time to come: love, loyalty, commitment, despair, and the impact one's actions can have on others. Vivid and inspiring!

A man's journey to the soul

Deep within each man is fear and doubt as Sam Barsby knows, yet his determination to peel off the layers of pain to find peace takes him on a journey within, far more signicant than the incredible events of his life. EVERY woman should buy this book for any man in her life who desires support in his walk through life with tough times and obstacles that bring him worries beyond his control. This book will heal his soul.

Touching and Heartfelt with an Appreciation for Life.

I just can't say enough about this book. Great for all ages. Very easy reading...a book you can't put down. Nice blend of reality and historical events. Beautifully written with descriptions that make you feel like you are there. This book gives a touching, heart-felt appreciation of life and family, of hardships and friendships, of nature and peace. Very possibly the best book I have ever read. An excellent "first" book by this author; can't wait to read more from her. Perfect title: Stillpoint..a pause in life to reflect and complete your journey.

A Soul Satisfying Book
