Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers
There are times in life when we hope, despite all evidence to the contrary. When we declare that we've hit rock bottom, only to find we've still got plenty of room to fall. Beaver, the author and a TV actor, celebrates this innocent yet profound belief -- that things will indeed get better -- in his unique memoir, Life's That Way.
Beaver's book consists of a series of e-mails he wrote over the course of a year. They began as a convenience, a way to update his friends and family nightly. His wife, Cecily, had just been diagnosed with lung cancer. At the same time, he was grappling with the recent diagnosis of his two year-old daughter, "a perfect child who's autistic." His efforts to regularly communicate express his deepest thoughts about fear, life, love, and family. We are all much richer for the experience of living it with him. (Summer 2009 Selection)
Actor Jim Beaver (Supernatural, Deadwood, Justified) and his wife Cecily Adams (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's Moogie) were at the peaks of their careers and happily raising a beautiful two-year old daughter, Madeline. Then tragedy struck, not once, but twice. What followed was laid down by Jim in a moving, poignant, and uplifting journal of the following year, a year filled with heartbreak as well as enormous gifts and invaluable lessons, not just for Jim and his family but for readers who traveled along with him on his journey.
