John Matson | 3 comments Hi everyone, I too would appreciate anyone interested in reviewing a memoir: Rainbow Colored Eyes. An excerpt is posted here. If the style is appealing, it is consistent throughout with an upbeat pace.

The book is a candid and authentic journey through the sometimes glorious, sometimes treacherous terrain of the mind and spirit of a young man seeking to know the world he is floundering in and find his place in it. Eric’s exploration into manhood begins when he makes a break from the expectations of parents, friends, and society and, on a whim, quits university in Boston to head out with his older brother on a road trip across the country to Vancouver. He wants to find out what life is all about. He wants to find something worth living for. He wants to know what his destiny is. From Vancouver, the trip becomes a solo journey to San Francisco, and then on to Guatemala, Central America, and South America. He is often conflicted between joy and despair as he faces fears, both internal and external, in a self-constructed rite of passage that takes him to the summits of mountains, into the deepest jungles, and into war torn countries.

Thanks so much,
John
