While I Am Not Afraid: Secrets of a Man's Heart

Here is the dramatic tale of a man's descent into the unresolved darkness of his soul. Filled with astute observations and written with an elegant rawness that is the product of brutal self-examination, the book provides a rare glimpse into the heart and mind of a man in crisis. At an age when most men are settled into a routine lifestyle, author and art critic Peter Clothier's world turned upside down; his daughter returned from college suffering from severe anorexia. The desire to save his daughter's life unexpectedly propelled Clothier into a search of self, whereupon he discovered a universe of unexpressed emotions and delayed dreams. Clothier recounts his confrontations with past demons, his encounters in the Warrior Monk organization, and the unrelenting strain his daughter's affliction brought to his marriage.
