(In the World of Life + Death)

“I’ve encountered many people in my life. I’ve traveled the world. I’ve taught thousands of students in college, from the U.S. and from abroad. I’ve had philosophical conversations that sometimes have changed my life or changed others’ lives. Yet you are the first I’ve ever encountered who has the power to write about life and death with a clarity that is so real, stunning and profound. Every time I read White Elephant in the Room, I am reminded that life IS profound, and that is an amazing feat. So thank you. Thank you for writing in a way that touches the soul.” — Shannon, Tennessee
