{"product_id":"singing-light-becoming-me-9781946989086","title":"Singing Light: Becoming Me","description":"\u003cp\u003eSondra Markim has in many ways lived a very charmed life. It didn't start out that way. She grew up poor, and often unhappy, in an aimless, gypsy-like chaos of fathers who were and weren't, a mother who often couldn't, and frequent changes of neighborhood whenever her family was forced to move.\u003cbr\u003e Yet Sondra flowered. \u003cbr\u003e How she did so, capitalizing on her truly extraordinary looks and a real talent for singing and acting, how she became a stage item in New Orleans, finally met the man of her dreams, and raised a happy, well-adjusted family, comprises the arresting first half of this exceptionally lively, wry, and deeply honest memoir. \u003cbr\u003e The second half describes how she confronted her beloved husband's long illness and, in so doing, was bit by bit transformed from the gorgeous but uncertain girl she had been into the remarkable woman she is today. You can't read this book without learning something about life you didn't know and understanding better what makes people tick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11517904\"\u003eSondra Markim\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Full Court Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946989086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946989088\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO005000\"\u003eEntertainment \u0026amp; Performing Arts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Full Court Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44697053397229,"sku":"9781946989086","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_5c6b42c1-60ae-4fdc-9e03-58f54da94fd3.jpg?v=1703811369","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/singing-light-becoming-me-9781946989086","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
