BETWEEN TWO KINGDOMS - SULEIKA JAOUAD KARTONIER...

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'A propulsive  soulful story of mourning and gratitude - and an
intimate portrait of one woman's sojourn in the wilderness between life and death.' TARA
WESTOVER  author of Educated __________We all face moments that bring us to our knees:
heartbreak  trauma  illness. When things don't go to plan this is the book to reach for - an
inspirational memoir about what we can learn about life from a brush with death. At just
twenty-two  on the cusp of adult life  Suleika Jaouad was diagnosed with leukemia and given a
35 per cent chance of survival. For the next five years  her world comprised four white walls 
a hospital bed  fluorescent lights  tubes and wires. She became patient 5624. At twenty-seven 
and celebrating her first year of remission  Suleika realized that  having survived  she now
had no idea how to live. And so she set out to meet some of the many strangers who had written
to her about their experiences of life  death  healing and recovery in response to her
Emmy-Award winning New York Times column  'Life Interrupted'. Between Two Kingdoms is the
result. Drawing on Suleika's TED Talk  now with 4 million views  it illuminates universal
questions about how we live  mourn  heal and grow up  and what it means to begin again.
