The Breaking of the Shell (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780953006359)

The Breaking of the Shell weaves the teaching of ancient wisdoms into a modern context in classic story-telling style. Like the works of Paulo Coelho which deliver timeless truths, this book brings together the subtle energies of the awakening consciousness of the 21st Century through the sometimes dramatic, sometimes seemingly ordinary life experiences of a middle class Englishman, Alexander Baker. When a tragedy strikes during an innocent childhood game, 6 year old Alexander's life is changed forever. It will be many years before the outcome of that day is finally discovered, an outcome only made possible by the destruction of Alexander's personal world and the humbling experience of opening his heart to the women closest to him. With consequences that will not only help Alexander to heal his deepest wounds, but also engage him in a process that could lead to global transformation, The Breaking of the Shell is a powerful story of our times, filled with hope and inspiration. REVIEWS "Spiritual fiction at its best. Full of wit and charm and a style similar to JD Salinger's classic 'The Catcher in the Rye, this novel captivates from the very beginning." Spirit & Destiny Magazine "Reminiscent of international bestseller Paulo Coelho's works, Barry Durdant-Hollamby has managed to capture the beauty of the process whereby facing our deepest and darkest wounds, we are often able to undergo profound and inspirational change. A real page-turner." Prediction Magazine "For anyone struggling with difficult circumstances in their own life, this book will illustrate how everything happens to us for a reason. In Alexander's life, we see the jigsaw come together. Every significant event in his life has a part to play in shaping his future. This is a book which convincingly deals with the fabric of the universe and the great mystery of coincidence and consequence." Feel Good Magazine "Hard to put down..." Kindred Spirit Magazine
