SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Some people are like butterflies. They are fragile and defenseless, but strategic in protecting themselves. They are beautiful, but they have to undergo a metamorphosis before they become full-fledged butterflies. Butterflies are unique -- and that is how poet-author Helen Lewison's life is. Her life is full of colors, beauty, and experiences -- and you will see how it unfolds as the Butterfly Chronicles tells it all in this heartwarming memoir.
Listen as the Butterfly Chronicles details her flight through the wilderness, until she finally found the flower that provided her with the pollen that completed her life. Poet-author Helen Lewison opens her diary and shares her growing up as a Jewish honky-tonk lovin' rebel in Texas, her falling in and out of love several times a week, and her tales of whirlwind romances with a WWII veteran, and a Beat artist. Accompany her as she finally meets the man who perfected her full circle. Witness how she has stretched out her wings as you follow her in this journey of love and life.
In this candid memoir of love, life, and spreading one's wings, you'll find yourself reminiscing your own journey as well. For more information on Butterfly Chronicles, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
About the Author
Helen Lewison was born in Waco, Texas. Years later, she moved to San Francisco, where a new world opened to her -- North Beach, poetry readings, coffee houses, and a flotsam and jetsam of wannabe artists and writers. Life became a colorful canopy she has never envisioned before. But this too ended and another life began -- marriage and the responsibilities associated with marriage -- which is still beautiful and colorful, even if not as stimulating to the younger fringe beatnik who lives in the enchanted world of San Francisco's North Beach. After her husband died, she began writing books, one after the other. Five books later, she is still writing and has a website: www.helenlewison.com.
