In From the Abyss, John Emil Augustine describes a journey from a hellish life full of guilt and self-recrimination to a realization that one person alone cannot bear all the burden, do all the sacrificing, and take all the responsibility for making a relationship work, or for its failure when it doesn't. With raw emotion and a bared soul, John infuses his tale with such feeling and angst that the reader's heart cannot help but be moved by the story he tells. From the Abyss speaks hope to men and women who have ever been caught in a destructive relationship, and serves as a cautionary tale for those tottering on the edge of one. A meaningful read for anyone who enjoys tales of tribulations overcome.
