“As you grow older, Edie, and things don’t happen the way you hoped they would, try to be mindful of the story of Job. Then decide how you choose your own ending.” – Hilda Wilson

At age 16, Edie had the perfect blend of beauty, brains and talent. She also had a diagnosis of the crippling and misunderstood disease of multiple sclerosis.

Her response was not what one would expect, even as additional problems pursued her, and the realities of life took turns she hadn’t counted on. 

The Book of Edie uses a story of the modern era to reexamine stories from the Old and New Testaments that many of us have become familiar with in simpler forms through children’s books, religious study groups, TV shows and movies. Using the science of the 20th and 21st centuries, “The Book of Edie” explores the source of our talents and strengths, and how, despite our weaknesses, we may have the ability to choose our destiny throughout our life rather than having it chosen for us.

Although the book contains religious themes, it’s primarily about the science of our times, the mysteries of humanity and a universe we still don’t understand.

But, most of all, it’s about the complexities of the human race, the scriptures that are timeless, and one woman’s journey to overcome the odds and use all that her DNA had given her — for better and for worse.
