Keith's Book: A Love Story is a captivating fictionalized memoir about the love story of the celebrated Jungian Analyst and best-selling author, Linda Schierse Leonard, with her soulmate, psychiatrist Dr. Keith Chapman-- a compelling true-love story that provides life-changing insights into the psychological experiences, successes, harms, and survival of lives touched by alcoholism, while searching for love, beauty, and soul on the quest for spiritual meaning.

In Keith's Book: A Love Story, Linda Leonard invites the reader to a dramatic journey on the path of love, companionship, and need. It portrays Linda's intense journey to win love and feel the true high of spiritual meaning. Linda writes of her dearest soulmate, Dr. Keith Chapman, a brilliant, devoted psychiatrist, as they travel a life-path literally blessed with adventures, hiking the high mountains in Colorado, Switzerland, South America, Africa, and even treading the snowy reaches of the Arctic Circle. As brave adventurers, they follow their dreams and quest for spiritual communion, self-understanding, and fulfillment. And yet Linda's love with Keith, an exuberant dreamer, is vexed by shared wounds of addiction that steal joy, ruin families, tear away the companionship most needed in the search for soul. And so in this love story they also experience the abyss of despair, freezing losses, and griefs that rend their hearts with pain. Yet, through a lifetime, they choose one another--a love story.

"This is the story of a strange, crazy, unprogrammed, courageous, adventurous journey of two souls in love, a musical duet totally improvised. We see inner lives totally exposed to time and circumstance, trusting, doubting, mystically uniting. Keith's Book is a love story in all the depth and complexity of psychic truth. And what a joy to read!" --Murray Stein, author of Jung's Map of the Soul: Deeper Explorations

"The moment I finished reading Keith's Book: A Love Story by Linda Leonard, I realized it is really a work of art. A true picture of an incredible love story that should be widely read. Keith's Book is even a great educational opportunity to understand the basic archetype's of Jungian psychology. Intimate and masterfully written, congratulations to Linda Leonard on another beautiful book!" --Arlene Landau, Ph. D., Jungian Analyst, author of Tragic Beauty: The Dark Side of Venus Aphrodite and the Loss and Regeneration of Soul
