Forty Something Phoenix (Memoirs of Marlayna Glynn)

An award-winning memoirist throws open the door to strange new worlds when she sells everything she owns and sets out on a journey across thirteen countries.

Plagued with exhaustion after fifteen years of single parenthood, the mid 40s author felt she'd given every part of herself away. "I'd reached a point in my life where something had to give, and it could no longer be me." Any middle-aged woman who has experienced a moment and asks, â€œIs this all there is?â€ will find it hard to not follow the author's reckless footsteps toward a rocky self discovery.

This is not a politically-correct polished story with a neat and perfect ending. Fans of Marlayna Glynn's memoirs will recognize her painful self-scrutiny as she explores competing urges for self-acceptance and happiness amidst countries and people not her own.

In exploring the darker layers of middle-aged femininity, Marlayna shares vignettes from the first six months of her journey. Readers will ultimately find hope in this memoir that teaches the wisdom and responsibility for creating your own miracles.
