Book Overview
Tim Warnock, author of Dive Log: Discovering Life Under the Seas, takes a deeply personal dive in Stories Mark Smiley Told Me. A splendid collection of short essays chronicling life, love, loss, and lessons learned, Stories Mark Smiley Told Me is a richly drawn, relatable collection.
Exploring such universal themes as belonging, searching for home, meaning, identity and self-discovery, Stories Mark Smiley Told Me details how the author learned to process a wide range of emotions over the course of several decades. At times highly irreverent, at times highly entertaining, this sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, wholly stranger-than-fiction memoir is moving.
Full of heart, feeling, and humor, these twenty-five essays and one short story arise from a son's chance discovery of his adoption, his own entry into adulthood and, finally, his accepting responsibility for a parent's care and end-of-life struggles. Tim Warnock's journey will inspire readers to examine their own life stories-and marvel at these essays, exceptionally well-told.
