Opis

Dropping the Robe: Stories of an Exposed Life chronicles a woman's journey to find her authentic self. Candid, heartbreaking, humorous and imperfectly spiritual, Dropping the Robe takes readers on the ride of a woman's lifetime. Ms. McManus was at the top of her profession when her life imploded. Over the next 4 years, thanks to a gifted psychologist and true friends who gave and accepted love and support freely, she began to piece together the childhood she had long since denied and a present day completely outside of her control. Dropping the Robe is a comedic, tragic, introspective and brutally honest story told from a 40-something woman's heart. Living a seemingly successful doing not being life, Sarah rediscovers what matters to her, and what the purpose of her life was meant to be. Within its pages, she questions and searches and prods and reflects in a way that only a true Irish storyteller can. It has been described as "Eat, Pray, Love" with permeating, no stone unturned candor. Certainly, it is not a book that will leave you unchanged.
