Editorial Reviews

"Through a compelling weave of Linda's clear, insightful, and engaging prose and Hakan's heartfelt, lyrical, and poetic responses, the authors of Illumination invite the reader on their journey from the initial diagnosis of Linda's breast cancer through the first year of treatment. Along the way, they share the thoughts, feelings, questions, and experiences that lead them to choose light, love, and life fully embraced in the present moment.

Cancer patients, survivors, family members, and caregivers, as well as anyone facing unexpected professional or personal challenges will find comfort and inspiration in the passages that document the decisions they faced, the milestones they crossed, and the lessons they learned with grace, humor, and gratitude."

Dr. Michelle Beauclair, Associate Professor (of French & Francophone Studies) and Author, Seattle Pacific University

"Totally engaging from the very first page, I couldn't put this book down. Linda writes fearlessly about her battle with cancer, the invasive treatments, and their many side effects, all while extracting meaning and sometimes surprising observations from her experience with the disease.

Adding context and providing the caregiver's point of view, her husband Håkan shares his unwavering love, encouragement, as well as feelings of helplessness through poetry and anecdotes from their lives. As we follow their adventures together, we are left with hope, light, and a strong urge to live a fulfilling life."

Jaeha Choi, Playwright, Stage Director, Entrepreneur, and International Educator

"The authors' self-reflections, and observations about who we are as people and, more importantly, who we can be is inspiring. Linda moves beyond herself and shows that this is not the story of a cancer survivor, it is the story of all of us, of getting through life with compassion and of knowing that life is for living."
