Description
by Diana Lynn (Author)
THE BIG LIFE is a compelling memoir of growing up under anything but usual circumstances. It offers a fascinating perspective on surviving parental dysfunction amidst ever changing environments. The journey of a young girl whose life is unexpectedly jolted out of normalcy and comfort into that of insecurity, danger, confusion and intrigue.
Imagine your parents woke you, a ten year old girl, up in the middle of the night and put you on a plane to a place you've never been before--alone with your fourteen year old brother. Little did she know, her childhood would be filled with abandonment and neglect from her narcissistic father and alcoholic mother.
In The Big Life, Diana shares her painful and incomprehensible tale of what she and her brother endured while her family was on the run from the FBI. And from what or who else, they had no idea. As she navigates all the twists and turns of her life, you'll be in for another kind of adventure - that of the heart.
Narrated in a fascinating mix of humorous, uplifting, and heartbreaking candor, The Big Life is a triumphant memoir about the choices we all have in life, along with the resilience of the human race and a fierce determination to survive. Diana's story offers a life-changing message of hope, showing we all have a choice in life: to become a product of the circumstances we cannot control, or to rise above them while enduring them, coming out better in the end.
The book is an excellent read for anyone struggling with navigating life's uncertainties. The passages on adaptability, resilience, determination, and faith make this true-to-life story wonderfully empowering!
