Book Description
After a decade of unexplainable ailments, Fred was belatedly diagnosed with Parkinsons disease at age fifty. Realizing there was a limited amount of time to enjoy life, Sally quickly convinced Fred that they should flee the suffocating small New England town, where their successful business and active involvement in many facets of the community, were becoming an overwhelming burden. Florida seemed like a logical care-free destination, where their past trials could be put aside, and the present moment enjoyed. Several years passed as the reality of his illness grew more bleak. After a number of discouraging visits, his doctor offered Fred the opportunity to be one of the first few American participants in a very controversial and totally secret medical research adventure. An arduous, cutting-edge journey ensued. Being first is not always wise or wonderful. Being given the ability to maintain hope in a hopeless and ever worsening situation, was the elusive pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

Book Description
“Out of the Woods is a brave and beautiful book, electrifying on sex and nature, religion and love. No one is writing quite like this.”— Olivia Lang, author of The Lonely City In this highly original work of nature writing and memoir, a young man explores his shifting sexual identity and troubled family history against the backdrop of a sprawling urban forest in London. In the wake of a significant breakup, Luke Turner is visited by familiar demons, including depression and guilt surrounding his bisexual identity, experiences of sexual abuse, and confusion brought on by an intensely religious upbringing. With nowhere to turn, Turner seeks refuge in London’s Epping Forest, where unexpected, elusive threats seem to have replaced its former comforts. No stranger to compulsion, Turner finds himself repeatedly drawn to the woods, eager to uncover its secrets and investigate an old family rumor of illicit behavior that once happened there. Away from a society that still cannot cope with the complexities of masculinity and sexuality, Turner finally begins to find acceptance among the trees as he reconciles external expectations with his own way of being.
