About the Book

As Mark struggles with his severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and his bisexuality, he's got a lot of time to figure out something meaningful to do with his life. Recently disabled and unemployed due to the OCD, he explores dating different men in an attempt to surround himself with good people, or at least one who's beneficial. Since women reject him unequivocally, the only relational options for Mark are to be with a man or to become celibate, and his spiritual discovery and self-awareness grow with every new chapter in his life. Join Mark on this journey of navigating the difficulties of disability, acceptance, sexuality, spirituality, and the quest for significance and love, as he battles depression, self-doubt, disappointment, and bewilderment in dealing with various friends and foes along the way.
About the Author: ABOUT THE AUTHOR Michael Elias is a transplanted, suburban Southern Californian in his 40s who loves to write and use language in creative new ways. He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Zoology and a Master of Science degree in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, which have served him well in professional scientific research throughout the years and in the co-writing and editing of numerous published scientific papers. Refocusing on a career in compositional writing, he has used his athleticism, his healthy, fit lifestyle, his education, and his disability to accurately portray the protagonist in his new novel, The Gift of Life, from a first-hand perspective. He lives in suburban Los Angeles with his pet black Labrador Retriever, Carter.
