Harris Untitled Memoir by E Lynn Harris
In many ways writing saved my life. It's my hope that sharing my experience will give hope to others who are learning to deal with their difference. I want them to know they don't have to live their lives in a permanent don't ask, don't tell existence. Truth is a powerful tool.But my hope for this book doesn't stop there. I think there is a message here for anyone who has ever suffered from a lack of self-esteem, felt the pain of loneliness, or sought love in all the wrong places. The lessons I have learned are not limited to race, gender, or sexual orientation. Anyone can learn from my journey. Anyone can overcome a broken heart.--E. Lynn Harris
