Suzy Farbman was a successful author who Oprah introduced to the
world as an expert on the tough challenge of saving a marriage.
But, behind the scenes, Suzy's world was falling apart after an
ominous diagnosis from her doctors. For years, Suzy had traveled
widely as a writer for magazines including Better Homes and
Gardens. Back from Betrayal, the popular memoir by Suzy that Oprah
recommended, told how Suzy and her husband repaired deep problems
in their own marriage. Suddenly, readers nationwide were seeking
Suzy's advice about relationships. Yet, at the height of this
success, Suzy privately knew that her body was failing. Facing the
same tough journey that looms for millions of Americans each year,
this tough journalist suddenly found herself scared. This athlete
suddenly found herself weak. This big-hearted wife, mother and
grandmother worried that she didn't have much time left to enjoy
the relationships that defined her life. Fear. Weakness. Facing
death. These are life's deepest spiritual challenges, Suzy
discovered. Searching for solutions, Suzy also found that America's
wealth of medical expertise is equaled by our wealth of spiritual
resources. Like millions of Americans, Suzy searched for the best
doctors-but she also called on her colorful circle of friends and
tried everything from psychotherapy to contemplating angels, from
ancient prayers to a hope in miracles. Her warm, suspenseful and
often funny journey of mixed disciplines is far from a dead end
Suzy realized that God reaches out to us through all of these
resources-from doctors to spiritual teachers. As a veteran writer,
Suzy quickly picked up her pen and now invites readers into her
journey of survival and spiritual awakening. Best of all, none of
the awakenings that Suzy describes in this moving story turned out
to be miracles. Instead, she argues that anyone can look for the
same kinds of GodSigns that broke through into her world on a daily
basis. Anyone can find hope with Suzy as their guide through one of
life's biggest challenges. If you enjoyed her earlier book about
marriage-Back from Betrayal: Saving a Marriage, a Family, a
Life-then, you're sure to love GodSigns. If you're meeting Suzy for
the first time, you won't find a better storyteller to take your
hand through America's diverse wealth of medical and spiritual
treasures. Other books about recovery and spiritual transformation
lead readers to more blind alleys than bright doorways. Suzy
specializes in finding the light in the most unlikely of places.
Other books about survival are grim. But, as you turn the pages of
GodSigns, you'll find yourself smiling, occasionally even laughing.
You'll meet surprising people in these pages. Think of the
startling truth and eye-opening adventure of Eat, Pray, Love. With
Suzy Farbman's new book, you're in the hands of another great
American writer.
