review 1: It is very seldom that I read a book and think "Everyone I know would both enjoy and benefit from this work." Agapi Stassinopoulos' "Unbinding the Heart" is just such a book.Stassinopoulos shares 32 short stories and one poem in this book, which is actually a memoir of sorts. She talks about a number of life lessons she learned from her Greek family (in particular her mother) and, along the way, shares ideas about reconnecting with one's true self. So many people have found that their true desires have been subsumed by familial or societal expectations that they are put on the shelf. Stassinopoulos shares simple ways to change that (while still earning a living, of course).I found the stories thought-provoking and well-written. There were times that I laughed and yes,... more times that I cried or came very close to doing so. Reading Stassinopoulos' book felt like having a conversation with a wise friend.Highly recommended.
review 2: What a wonderful, thought provoking book. I completely enjoyed this novel. As other readers have expressed, I couldn't put it down. I lost myself while reading.Unbinding the Heart is a perfect title. We could all use a little unbinding at times.This is the book you should give to friends as a gift. Everyone has stress in their lives, especially with today's economy and problems. We can all learn from Agapi'swords and experiences. Be good to yourself, while getting this for friends, don't forget to get a copy for yourself. Sit down with a cup of tea and read the Greek wisdom within these pages!Even if you are not a fan of 'spiritual/self help' books, you WILL enjoy this book and take something away with you. less
