Stitched Memories Within My Fedora - Paperback

Throughout Aaron's adolescent years he was dragged around the world with me by virtue of my Navy career. The result is an affable, slightly insecure but intensely caring young man, who has experienced the good and the bad that the world has to offer. From an early age he demonstrated a gift to empathize and connect with others, quickly becoming the go-to person for those who were experiencing problems; he was always there to help and still exercises that gift today. This work is a compilation of poetry etched from his brilliant and bizarre mind, through the eyes of a world-traveler influenced by many different cultures, his emotions, and physical life-changing events. He writes from the depth of his experiences, taking the reader on a wild journey through love, angst, anger, loss, friendship, politics, religion, hurt, pride, shame, depression, loneliness, and redemption. Aaron hopes that through his poetry you will realize that you are not alone - that there are people near you who are dealing with the same issues, fighting the same battles, and wrestling with the same emotions as you are; and, most importantly, help you realize there is always someone to lean on when life gets ugly. Aaron de Monbrun is finally able to share a part of himself that he hopes will inspire, touch, and move people's hearts through his amazing writings contained in this book, Stitched Memories Within My Fedora. His mother used to comment about how his smile would light up a room, and she was right; now discover how his heart will light up your life through this book, Stitched Memories Within My Fedora.
