Annabel Harper, Leadership Coach, Middle East
Specialist, Professional Speaker, Author, and DProf Candidate, recently shared
her thoughts on A Journey Toward Light:
"For some people, life’s unexpected hurdles
have the potential to be completely overwhelming. This book, based on real
events, demonstrates how the power of love, family and friends combine with
sheer determination to dig a way through a life-changing experience. Rita’s
story and its raw honesty is an inspiration. Most important, it is Lina
Farajallah’s weaving of the story which makes it live on in the mind long after
reading it. Her ability to listen deeply and her acute understanding of the
nuances of language are outstanding. I hope we see more from this author in the
future."
Reading Annabel Harper’s review is both deeply touching and incredibly
encouraging. When writing A Journey Toward Light, my goal was to
honour a story of resilience, love, and perseverance while remaining true to
the emotional realities behind the experiences that inspired it. Knowing that
Rita’s journey resonated as a source of inspiration and hope means a great deal
to me. I am especially humbled by Annabel’s kind words about the storytelling
itself. Her recognition of the care taken to capture emotional nuance and
authenticity is profoundly meaningful, as listening, understanding, and
conveying the human experience with honesty were at the heart of this book. To
hear that the story lingers in the mind long after the final page is one of the
greatest compliments an author can receive. I am sincerely grateful to Annabel
for her thoughtful and generous review, and honoured that A Journey Toward
Light left such a lasting impression.
