The grace of a nightingale - Mary Anne Willow

Mary Anne's story is both ordinary and extraordinary. Ordinary because she was searching for the same things many of us search for: love, understanding and purpose; and extraordinary because she had to go through hell to find them. The Grace of a Nightingale is a brilliant, heartfelt odyssey of survival. Even in her darkest moments, Mary Anne's courage and faith, combined with her passionate appreciation of beauty in nature, books and music, bring glimpses of light and hope. On her journey through life, she is supported by her 'mat carriers', both friends and strangers, helping her to triumph over adversity. And, like all the best stories, there is a happy ending.
