Description: Unapologetic addresses themes as diverse as faith, sexuality, loss, passion, hate, change, illness, rage, love, female circumcision and world conflicts.
 
The light is about how we can lend our strength to those who need it and how it can make a difference to the lives we touch. Inside, outside reveals how, in times of crisis, the difference between the spiritual life and the material world disappears. Souls that fly expresses the ebb and flow of universal human emotions, and how humanity as a whole can ultimately transcend its separateness. Enigma is about the human need for desire, which will never be satisfied until we recognise its need for us. Angels is the story of an art restorer's realization that while people and buildings may die, the spirit of creation is always alive. The main work Unapologetic deals with arriving at a hard-won acceptance of one's life in all its totality, with all its light and shade, and its give and take.
 
This book is about how life must be lived with passion, with tenderness, with courage. So the soul does not hunger. So it does not become apologetic.
