'Notes From the Mothership ~ The Naked Invisibles' coalesces the seemingly disparate elements of the authors existential search for identity and self with a poetic poignancy afforded only by a life lived fully, attentively and mostly unguarded.
Notes From the Mothership The Naked Invisibles is not just an autobiography or memoir, it is a poetic and sometimes tragic look at life in general. Deeply personal without the stench of voyerism, the book takes you on a whirlwind tour de force of personal experiences and behind the scenes glimpses into the worlds that the author inhabits.
Adrienne Zurub mines the cultures of various artistic and serious professionals for her self-evolution to which we are made privy. The book is insightful, engaging, and FUNNY!
Excerpt
How many cares one loses,
when one chooses not to be
something, but to be someone.
--Coco Chanel
Professional Reviews
Passionate Transparency
You are birthing a work that many women will appreciate and identity with, myself included. I applaud your courage, your goals, and your passionate transparency. Giving this book to yourself is a big gift for others.
A Book About Life
Just as the author seeks out other avenues for her self expression and ways to escape the morass of the life and death situations in a cardiac OR, the book takes you on a whirlwind tour de force of personal experiences and behind-the-scenes glimpses into the world of standup comedy. It's a Faulknerian stream of consciousness that allows the reader entre into the mind--and great heart--of this remarkable woman.
I Am Blown Away...
I am blown away with your ability to draw me into the emotion of your experiences. You've been able to communicate (so beautifully)all the various accompanying emotions that have surrounded the cases you describe. You've captured the agony, the wonder, the humor, the paradoxes and the surreal qualities of being, day-after-day, in an environment that is way outside most people's experiences.
