iUniverse Titles Featured in April Edition of Kirkus Discoveries Newsletter
New York, NY, May 03, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Two iUniverse titles received excellent reviews in the April 2007 edition of the Kirkus Discoveries monthly e-newsletter.
Anatomy of a Friendship details the author Robert Levy's long-time relationship with his late friend Charlie. Levy tells a deeply touching story of two friends who spent much of their time enjoying the outdoors, particularly their numerous fly-fishing trips. As the decades passed, the two men formed a bond that transcended Charlie’s untimely death from cancer. According to the reviewer, “The final pages, in which Levy recounts his last visit with Charlie and their painful conversation about facing and accepting death—while still fully experiencing life—are intimate and powerful.”
Always Another Horizon vividly describes the experiences of author Tina Olton and her husband Steve Salmon during the eight years they spent circumnavigating the globe aboard a 40-foot boat. Several experiences almost brought the couple to their knees, including a vicious lightning storm, a leaky boat and an encounter with Sudanese military ships. However, the good experiences far outnumbered the bad, and Olton explains the joy of interacting with various cultures and people from the far corners of the world. Kirkus calls the book, “Informed, informative and inspiring.”
