5.0 out of 5 stars Definately worth a read, 9 July 2008
This review is from: Stranger on the Shore: A Personal Story of Struggle with Renewal and Inner Healing (Paperback)
I found this book a very frank, honest and no holds barred account of the authors struggle in dealing with things that happened during child hood and the effects of them in later life.
Although this is Anthony Roses' personal story it cetainly provoked my own thoughts about my family story and how that if we can understand our own selves we are less likely to struggle with our emotions.
Good reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars From one stranger to another, 2 July 2008
This review is from: Stranger on the Shore: A Personal Story of Struggle with Renewal and Inner Healing (Paperback)
The back of the book says "When he was a child, Anthony Rose went through the trauma of his parents' separation and divorce. The real effects of this only became apparent later in life when he found there were emotional issues he had to face before he could move on as a Christian and as a human being."

The book is an interesting read written in a clear and friendly style making it available to anyone. The reader's interest is captured at the beginning and maintained throughout. Short headings within each chapter act as useful markers.

There is a tendency towards repetition in places probably due to the personal nature of the book. Some parts must have been painful to write, creating the need to visit more than once to get to the necessary depth.

Although I do not come from a broken home, I think that this book provides help for anyone in terms of recognising feelings which are causing problems of any kind and doing something about them. The 'other person' who seems to be the cause of a particular problem is rarely the sole agent. We all have our own input into a problematical situation and we need to recognise what that is. This book encourages us to do that with the aid of the Holy Spirit.

The book should also help to dispel the myth that priests are not prey to situations that affect the rest of the population. Although a detailed, personal account, the reader receives much help and encouragement.
