On a sunny fall day in 1983, Patricia Van Tighem and her husband, Trevor Janz, were brutally attacked by a bear while hiking in the Canadian Rockies. Trevor Janz was severely hurt, but Patricia Van Tighem (Trish, as she was known) suffered even more serious, disfiguring injuries, and that she survived was truly a miracle.
THE BEAR'S EMBRACE, garnered much praise when it was first published, in 2000. With honesty and eloquence, the book tells of the unpredictability of life, of bravery, terror, rage, and love, of what it means to look and feel different in a culture that values perfection. Deeply moving and often astonishing, The Bear's Embrace is an inspiring story of human perseverance and self-knowledge.
