Knoxville Author Interviewed on Yall.com
An Uphill Climb - Survivor's Guilt and the Inca Trail
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Local author Jim Santos was recently featured in a video interview for Yall.com's "Book of the Week". His latest book, "An Uphill Climb – Survivor's Guilt and the Inca Trail" has been getting attention lately, with excellent reviews on Amazon. Already a successful author in the travel and retirement fields with work published in venues like The Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post, and several International Living magazines and e-publications, Mr. Santos in his latest book has turned instead to a sometimes brutally honest and personal account of dealing with two very serious issues; the Survivor's Guilt felt by the surviving spouse of a cancer victim, and the long-term effect of childhood abuse
The book was noticed by the folks at Yall.com, who publish a web site dedicated (as you may have guessed by the name) to celebrating all things Southern. The 15-minute interview is at https://youtu.be/bv0TiikwWhc.
As Mr. Santos mentions in the interview, as we pass 213,000 COVID deaths nationwide there are probably a lot of people out there who are feeling a bit of Survivor's Guilt themselves. "I can't imagine how much worse it would have been for me if I had watched my wife die in quarantine isolation, unable to provide any comfort," says the author.
Available on Amazon in both the Kindle format with full color photos and a black and white paperback, reader reviews have been excellent, with comments including "rich and soulful documentation of one man's journey towards healing", "an incredible and inspiring story", and "a guide to help you open your mind, release an inner demon or two, and share tears, laughter, beauty, and the frailty of self-growth."
