Legends of the Plastic Chairs is a journey into the heart's core. The book begins with an epiphany Curtis experiences on a Hawaiian beach. She masterfully tells the story of her life - without judgment or self-pity - and creates the perfect metaphor for overcoming any kind of dysfunction. The book lays open the author's own tragic childhood abuse and her steady climb back into joyful well-being. Incredibly, Curtis uses humor to look at how we become who we are and how we form distorted judgments of ourselves and each other. This story is ultimately about the indomitable human spirit and the voice within each of us that calls us back to rediscovering the joy of who we really are. Through this voice, Curtis learns that conquering one's emotional scars is not only possible, but even fun. The cast of characters in Curtis' life - a crazy woman, a misogynist, three sisters, a Voice, a church, three children, two ex-husbands, a white-haired old man - and two white plastic chairs - lead her to make a most profound discovery about life. Legends of the Plastic Chairs will take you on a journey to freedom from your emotional scars, old programming, and destructive self-images.
