Downward Plunge! July 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If I was on a roller coaster, this would be the section of track where the coaster cars first go over the big hill and plunge into the deep, dark, underground tunnel.
Lost is a revealing and courageously honest examination of the author's slide into self-destruction. Drug abuse, alcoholism, embezzlement, insurance fraud... the spiral into darkness seems uncontrollable. So many people in our culture today succumb to the temptations of greed, vanity and lust. This story makes it seem all too dangerously simple and should act as a beacon of warning to all those making similar life choices.
Told with the same biting wit and manic pacing as his first six chapters, this latest installment of Moments and Milestones leaves the reader breathless and bruised.
Cutting a swath of destruction across his life, the cyclonic force of this latest chapter in author Timothy Mulder's history has swept me up in its backwash.
Utterly Captivating July 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
"Lost" continues Timothy Mulder's trek through life, and as the title implies, the period covered by this book is dark, indeed. It covers his fall into drug abuse and the problems he suffers in his relationships and life in general during a very tough period, leading to what amounts to a spiritual collapse.
To be entirely honest, writing a review for this book is difficult. The author's life as depicted in "Lost" is such a huge departure from anything in my own personal experience that it's hard for me to find a frame of reference. I've been blessed with a comparatively easy life, no substance abuse problems (either for myself or others in my family), and while I've had a number of challenges now and then, I can only give thanks that I've never had to see the sort of hell the author has lived through. I have been extraordinarily blessed.
But, upon reflection, that's truly the power of this book and the others in Timothy Mulder's series: I believe that sharing his traumatic experiences helps those of us who haven't had to go down that road appreciate how good we have it, and hopefully makes us more understanding - and respectful - of those who have.
A Journey Worth Taking July 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am enjoying my journey through the chapters of Mr. Mulder's memoir. Once again, I am captivated by his lifestyle involving drug use, nightclubs, and the people he associated with during those times. I am leaving this chapter with the feeling of satisfaction of having been somewhere, yet frustrated because I am left wanting more. It is with great anticipation that I look forward to the next chapter.
Profoundly Riveting July 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Lost (part three) is such a departure from the first six chapters of Moments and Milestones that I almost could not believe it was part of the same story. The author; Timothy Mulder takes the reader boldly and with courageous honesty along for the ride as he dives deep into denial, drug addiction and betrayal of self. After witnessing him fully blossom into a proud self-realized gay man in 'Lonely', this willful self destruction was painful to behold. He never looses his sense of wit and seems to learn powerful lessons along the way, so I can only hope for a light at the end of the tunnel.
Riveting storytelling.
Lost by Timothy Mulder June 25, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Anticipating another winner I found one. Mulder writes with the wisdom of hindsight, but realistically, not leaving anything out including his own mistakes. Nothing hides in the closet with this riveting sequel. Still wanting more. I Can't wait. Sondi
