Tess took flight, pursuing her promise to marry a Brazilian exchange student. As she traveled across the continents, she grappled with love and darkness. She looked up at the full moon, gazed at the twinkling stars, and listened, immersing herself in the voices that surrounded her. If only she had tried harder to say the words.

Produktbeschreibung
Tess took flight, pursuing her promise to marry a Brazilian exchange student. As she traveled across the continents, she grappled with love and darkness. She looked up at the full moon, gazed at the twinkling stars, and listened, immersing herself in the voices that surrounded her. If only she had tried harder to say the words. Her silence became a distant echo. The softness of his lips was replaced by the black and white images of her past. She tried to look beyond the puffy clouds in the sky, but found herself staring at the memory of Andy Warhol's pop art, a simple can of Campbell's tomato soup. Tess clings to optimism and inner strength, which guides her to an insatiable desire to fly. The seagulls above, the sparkle of the San Francisco Bay, and the surrounding hills of Oakland, California, set the stage for Tess Hamilton's journey. And Thoughts of Leaving become her only friend. This book is based on a true story and will take the reader through a time and place where youth and love are sought and not always found as expected.
Autorenporträt
Tess Hamilton's desire to write began as a child. Her father would share his exceptional imagination, his love and encouragement for Tess to pursue her dreams, however distant they may seem. While he pounded away on his manual typewriter, striking each key with intense enthusiasm, along with a particular gleam in his eyes, he entranced Tess; firmly embedding his image forever in her memory. After navigating across numerous thresholds, Tess finally devoted countless hours, writing her own journey. Surrounded in solitude, sharing that gleam in her eyes, and striking her key board with her own intense enthusiasm, Tess's efforts blossomed into her first novel, Thoughts of Leaving. Tess currently resides in Wyoming and is writing her second book, a sequel entitled, Thoughts of Leaving Reappear.
