Losing Jasmine is the story of how one man tries to come to terms with the sudden void presented to him when his precious life partner wascruelly taken from him. This short novel full of reality and pain mingled with just the right balance of humour asks us all, what would we do? And how would we react if we were in a similar situation? Then as we are taken through a plethora of raw emotion that speeds to a conclusion which will take you by agonizing surprise, Dr Charlie lifts us to a higher plain, and reveals a love so noble, so pure, and so sacrificial, that even what we have previously read, is completely eclipsed. Have the handkerchiefs ready, you're going to need them" Daniel Braithwaite, Senior Editor, Logos Family Magazine New Jersey August 31st 2023.
