The Song of the Bear

By Mark Tungesvik

The Song of the Bear is intended as a therapeutic fiction, which is amply accomplished. As an oncologist and novice philosopher, Dr. Mark Tungesvik noticed his patients needed a bridge from the shock and despair of finding out they had cancer, to the hope of a new life. After over a decade of supporting his patients both physical and spiritually, Dr. Tungesvik wrote this book to capture the essence of moving out of a dark and challenging place to a reality where hope can be found. This story begins with John, a man driven close to madness from grief after the death of his wife. We take John's hand as we walk with him through his grief as our reality begins to meld with his. As we follow John, we are swept into an adventure where nothing is as it seems. We must relearn our reality with John piece by piece. We are asked to trust in the narrow path - a path that only reveals a short distance ahead and promises certain death if we slow down or turn back.
