“Every book leaves a mark. This is where we talk about it.”

In this episode of Offbeat Journeys, I discuss the books that showed courage in the most human way.

I talk about how existing in silence is powerful, how courageous it is to live a life no one expects you to, and how courage is not always an act of bravery. Sometimes it's the opposite. In this episode, I talk about:

· The book written in the most drastic circumstances that lead to the most amazing act of courage

· The one that shows us what it is to courageously live a life society does not expect

· And the book that shows that courage comes in many forms, and from many origins
 

If you’ve ever felt understood by a book… if you love stories that linger… or if you’re curious about how writers are shaped by the books they read — you’re in the right place.
