THE MOODS, THE METHODS, THE
MANIFESTATIONS OF THE HUMAN HEART ARE THE STUFF OF WHICH LEGENDS ARE MADE . . .
AND NIGHTMARES.
IT WAS SOCRATES WHO DECLARED,
“TO KNOW THYSELF IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM.”
TO TRULY UNDERTAKE SUCH AN EXERCISE REQUIRES MORE DISCIPLINE, MORE
TENACITY, AND MORE RAW COURAGE THAN MOST OF US CAN MUSTER. AND YET DR. RICHARD MABRY HAS MANAGED TO DO SO
NOT ONCE . . .NOT TWICE . . . BUT THREE
TIMES IN 121 PAGES.
IN BITTER PILL ONE COMES FACE TO FACE WITH A RELIGIOUS
SHYSTER, AN EMPTY PASTOR, AND A STRUGGLING PHYSICIAN. EACH OF THEM CONTAIN THE SEEDS OF
GREATNESS. EACH OF THEM IS DRINKING THE
DREGS OF DOUBT AND DESPAIR. AND AS THEY
CROSS PATHS, AND WANDER INTO EACH OTHER’S LIVES, THE READER DISCOVERS THAT HE
IS EXPERIENCING THE GREATEST THRILL KNOWN TO MAN.
IT’S CALLED LIVING.
DR. MABRY CONFESSES IN HIS
PREFACE THAT THIS PARTICULAR STORY HAS BEEN SITTING ON THE BACK BURNER
INDEFINITELY, BECAUSE A FRIEND WHO KNEW HIM WELL SAID REPEATEDLY, “THIS ISN’T
THE TYPICAL RICHARD MABRY NOVEL.” AND HE'S RIGHT.
IT’S MORE. IT’S DEEPER.
IT’S BOTH SOBERING AND EXHILARATING.
IT’S SOMETHING I WISH I’D
READ EARLIER, AND SOMETHING THAT I WOULD LOVE TO READ AGAIN.
5 STARS FOR YOUR “NOT SO TYPICAL” RICHARD MABRY NOVEL
I received this book free of
charge in exchange for my open and honest review.
