Sophia van Buren presents Illumination: How One Woman Made Light of the Darkness
08/18/2011 7:30 pm
On
Sophia van Buren's 14th wedding anniversary, the police come knocking
on her front door. The news they bring about her husband triggers a
revelation that instantly causes Sophia's suburban life to collapse.
It destroys one world, but creates another, and ignites something within
her, forcing the woman buried under years of diapers and coupons to
emerge.Illumination is not a bitter lament. It's a modern mother's odyssey, a quest for hope, levity, and the courage to follow one's inner light through dark times. Sophia does find hope, but first she must overcome the shadows cast by those conditioned to judge.
Ultimately, Illumination is a story of rebirth and true love that begins where Sophia's previous world ends.
North Portland author Sophia van Buren is the creator of the blog A Non Custodial Mother. She recently appeared on OPB Radio's Think Out Loud to discuss non-custodial parenting.
