BOOK REVIEW! Order here: canadianpublications.com Please read 
According to Rumi, the 13th-century Sufi mystic and poet, “the cure for pain is pain”. Christian Corbet’s autobiography is a powerful testimony of how pain can be faced, transformed into beauty through creativity, and generously shared. In his creative masterpiece of memoir, we accompany his inner child in a flash-back into a heart-breaking journey of child and youth maltreatment. From this pain, we see the seeds of how he rose to thrive like a phoenix of resilience, filled with talent and humanity. French Neuropsychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik considers resilience as the ability to be “born from one’s own pain”. With his lifetime commitment to artistic excellence, and now through his memoir’s elegantly rhyming poems, Christian Corbet teaches us a lesson of healing, self-compassion, growth, hope, and beauty. Thank you!
