Susan Parker's new book Walking in the Deep End is a compelling memoir that chronicles the gritty and fascinating life of a modern American woman as she overcomes a family heritage filled with secrets, shame, painful personal events, and religious hypocrisy.
Susan
Parker did
not always have a normal childhood. When she was
11 years
old, her father had a mental breakdown
and tried to commit suicide
several times. Her
family held dark secrets-an aunt was brutally
raped
and eventually
committed suicide out of
despair; an uncle was hidden away until he was
thirteen. As her world became increasingly complex
and difficult, her
family turned to Evangelical
Christianity to guide them through the
many rough
patches they endured.

'The Grand Design,' Hawking's long awaited sequel to 'A Brief History of Time,' is giving some well-known science fiction fixtures a veneer of scientific credibility: multiverses and alternate histories.
