About the Book

Short Lives is a simple tale of a simple time: the sixties and seventies in Australia. A novella written in a series of vignettes, it is the story of a child's life: the drama, adventure, small things and big that make a child's life so unique. But it is told through the voice of the child now grown: a 39 year old woman who learns she has only a few months left to live. As she revisits her life and how it brought her to this point, she captures the essence of the quintessential Aussie child: suburban, sunburned, big cars and family outings, backyard cricket, death, pets, and daredevil childhood stunts. It's the story of life and death; an exploration of memories, their impact, their meaning, and how they culminate in who we are at the end of it all. This book will change the way you look at life...and death.
About the Author: Braja Sorensen is a writer-author, poet, photographer, bhakti-yogini, cook, and cow lover, hailing from the beaches of Australia. She has lived in on the banks of the sacred Ganges River in Mayapur, West Bengal, since the turn of the century. Lost & Found in India (Hay House International, 2013) is her first mainstream book, and she has other published works in the Vaishnava genre: 18 Days: Sri Panca-tattva's Mayapur-lila (2004), and India & Beyond: Plane Reading for Part-time Babajis (2012), plus a book of collected writings, Mad & Divine (2015). Braja also worked for some years on Nava-vraja-mahima (Lal Publishing, 2013) penned by Sivarama Swami, a nine-volume treatise on the sacred land of India through the Vaishnava perspective of pastime, pilgrimage, and philosophy. Short Lives is her first novella, and her second, Kavita: Search For Transcendence is a poetry novella. Tryst: Ghazals of Love, is due to be published in 2016, along with two fiction novels, Of Noble Blood and Ruby Sky. Connect with Braja at her author's page amazon.com/author/brajasorensen
