  • ANTHOLOGY of HOPE
When I first began writing my diaries I purposely wrote in Portuguese, my native language so that I didn’t have to worry about someone reading them. Writing was my daily escape and sometimes “stabbing words on paper” was what kept me strong, it cleaned me from inside out, very much like going to confession.
Owning the freedom of expression was to me an open invitation to put aside all preconceived ideas of what was taboo and to write only the truth. Soon I was amazed to discover that by writing a past event of muddy waters it suddenly became crystal clear.
The people and the stories portrayed in my diaries are all true as to my recollection when I began writing in Portuguese, Saturday, April 26, 1986, in Howell, New Jersey.

The Gift takes place in mid-life, and it shows us that age is not relevant except to give us the tools to keep moving forward. In the first chapter the reader is drawn in through the tragic death of Esagui’s second husband on their honeymoon. And the story continues to be mesmerizing as she chronicles the struggles to gain her chiropractic degree, and her roller coaster ride of relationships and various first dates, through internet match-ups, in her quest to find a life partner.
