Review

Every life is a story, says Mandy Aftel. We tell the stories of our lives to friends and neighbors, on job interviews and blind dates, at slumber parties and in therapy. Too often, though, the stories we tell -- and live -- are cliches, simplistic tales of blame, guilt, hopelessness, and anger that limit our understanding of the past and close off possibilities for the future.

But the story of your life doesn't have to read like bad fiction. In this tremendously original and insightful book, Aftel shows how we can assume authorship, revising trite or destructive story lines and crafting new narratives of courage, fulfillment, imagination, and unfolding potential. Filled with imaginative exercises for rethinking and rewriting your life story! Highly recommended.

Review

Brilliant insights by a therapist who offers, in place of Prozac, practical steps to rewriting the story of your life. A stimulating way to get started on a new passage. -- Gail Sheehy, author of New Passages
