Boyertown, PA Author Publishes First Novel

The Road of Sorrow, a new book by Christine Hale, has been released by RoseDog Books.

Do genetics or circumstances shape the course of a person’s life? Are mental disorders or addictions in the realm of a person’s choice?

The Road of Sorrow is based on the true story of one man’s journey with mental illness, drug addiction, and great losses. Rusty lived his life on the edge, rejecting those who loved him the most. His personal losses exceeded those of an average person. With each loss, Rusty turned inward, changing his character and his need to feel whole and loved. Each change leads him further along in the Road of Sorrow.
