While Searching for Love and Self: A Journal in Prose and Verse 1986-2003
by Don Paul Martin
Category: Biography & Autobiography

On the eve of his 18th birthday, a young man pens a letter to his future self. This will be the first entry in what will become a 17-year journal in poetry; poetry which embraces the hopes and heartbreaks of his relationships until the day when he, at last, answers his letter from so long ago. This true-life journal confronts emotions ranging from quick wit to those which are rarely discussed by men. While Searching for Love and Self is an honest, as-it-happens account of life and love, from adolescence to adulthood, that provides us all with an "I've been there" nod of the deepest understanding.
