• How Do We Become the Person That We Are: Creating a life - Author signed copies

    By Grace Harlow Klein

    $24.95 + S&H

     

  • Written with a compelling narrative weaving the parts of Grace's life together, her journey in her own words takes the reader to a new understanding of how we become the person that we are. It is both an extraordinary story and an important and timely commentary on how personality development is affected by the events of our life.

    There are reasons why we become the way we are which often aren't apparent on the surface.

    In her riveting memoir, Grace owns the risks she took throughout her life as she takes responsibility for everything that happens. As she pulls the reader in, we can begin to understand how we too become the person that we are, opening the door to new possibilities for our life.
    —Coralie Harlow Robertson, Author of The Journey Within: Living After Loss

     

    Dr. Grace Harlow Klein has truly realized the person she has become.

    As a therapist, her life, her journey as a nurse-clinician, then with Dean, and then growth into a psychotherapist beyond, speaks to her devotion to personal understanding, and transcendence to a place of accrued knowledge, wisdom, experience, trust, and love.
    —Donald G. Symer M.D. Primary Care Physician

     

    Grace Klein has crafted a beautiful memoir that takes the reader along for the journey of discovering herself. The definition of self does not occur with one single event but a culmination of events, encounters, relationships, and curiosity. Dr. Klein' s quest was to know who she is and how she became the empowered, driven, compassionate and empathetic woman that she is. Her story is one to be passed on for generations to come. Her accomplishments and legacy will shape the future. With appreciation for her willingness to share her insights and vulnerabilities in hopes that we can all learn that it is never too late to write a different chapter in the story of our lives.

    Grace's writing moves swiftly between distant past and more recent memories - remembering initial sparks and the first blush of love, through years shared as an inseparable couple, creating a family together - and back to the present biting moment and the awareness of the pain of her loss, how much grief continues to hurts...

    The Colors of Grief resonates with deep feeling and awareness. It is essential reading for understanding love and profound loss.

  • Up North, In the Wild Orchid Country

     

    By Alan P. Smith

     

    Words of Praise for Up North, in the Wild Orchid Country

    In his poetry, Alan P. Smith uses his gift of words to reflect on his life - as he knows he is coming to its end.  The pain and losses are intermingled with the joys he found in the woods, with his dogs, with the blond Dutch girl and on the shores of Lake Superior - up north in the wild orchid country.

    His voice is raw with emotion, with memory of people and events in his life.  It is also a voice of hopefulness - that there will be time to go fishing another day - somewhere.

    In praise of Grace Harlow Klein’s
    latest book of poetry, Bridge of Returning:

    “In a touching family remembrance, Grace adeptly balances life and death. Finding her voice, she illuminates how both kind and piercing, provincial and transcendent, damaging and empowering the experience of loss can be. The journey demonstrates how her life-long practice of empathy and courage for others as a nurse, psychotherapist, educator, and dean powerfully evokes the intimate nature of not only her own, but indeed all of our lives’ loves and losses. She somehow manages to trail blaze and offer a glacial poignance through the experience of both life and death.”

    Jeffrey H. D. Cornelius-White, PsyD, LPC

    “...The collection is a touching gift, the poems providing richness and hope to each of us as we navigate our lives…Vividly important at any age, and a ‘must read’ for mid- and later life reflections.”

    Lois K. Evans, PhD, RN, FAAN

    Songs of Living     by Armin Klein


    In praise of Armin Klein’s
     book of poetry, Songs of Living

    Armin brings the process of growth out from behind closed doors of the therapist, making it more available and understandable for those interested in seeking it for themselves. He exposes human reasons for unhappiness and translates them into a positive life-enhancing force present within us all.

    Sometimes humorous, often serious, through love, loss, friendship and death, and his own aging, Armin returns again and again to his feelings and the world of his own experience to define himself. He explores, through his relationships, the powerful impact of connection with others as the ultimate encounter with himself.
