As I write this page in the blog, Fabian is busy writing a sequel to her first book. She has written and published two so far: The Outing (a compelling and moving story about being gay in the 1980s) and The Man with the Butterfly Mind (an uplifting ensemble story about what happens when the only living soul who knows you are missing is your dog).

Bimba’s happiness isn’t the only thing that’s in jeopardy when her owner disappears. And when she finds herself in the care of others, her gratitude is overshadowed. Even if she could make them understand, they are all preoccupied with their own sadness and struggles.

But, as seemingly unrelated events and unexpected kindness propel Bimba’s new friends into an orbit with her at its center, the universe gets to work. And as their lives overlap and converge, it’s clear that even when what we get isn’t what we thought we wanted, happiness is still there, waiting for us to catch on or catch up.

Using A Course in Miracles as its treasure map, The End of Death carves a brilliantly clear and insightful path straight toward the treasure of Christed awareness. With startlingly lucid explanations, Nouk pares the Course’s true message down to its most powerful essence. And the many Course quotes she includes offer undeniable proof of the argument she makes: That Jesus asks every one of us to embody full Christed awareness — right here, right now, while still in a body — just as He did.
