Eclipse of the Mourning Star is a powerfully emotional coming-of-age memoir, equal parts gutting and humorous in its recounting of murder, suicide, racial healing, glamour, romance, and even black holes. It begins when Robert Eujean Ogden's sister is stabbed to death on his eleventh birthday. Later in life, his mother dies by suicide in what Robert originally thought was an accident. Later still, he deals with the loss of his father from an aggressive cancer, and the death of his brother.
Through it all, the book conveys that laughter is a potent medicine, but love is the cure. Spanning nearly three decades, Eclipse of the Mourning Star guides the reader through a life that has led deep into a forest of doubt, leaving an inspiring glow of distant lanterns.
Eclipse of the Mourning Star is illustrated in premium color and blackhole black and white by thirty-three world renowned artists hailing from seven different countries.
