Crossbearer

A Memoir of Faith

De: Joe Eszterhaus

Narrado por: Grainger Hines

Joe Eszterhas knows a lot about darkness. A writer of sinister, sexually graphic, violent films like Basic Instinct and Jagged Edge, he awoke one hellishly hot day in 2001 and found God. Or, rather, God found him. Crossbearer is the powerful, poignant story of how a streetwise, cynical man who must overcome his addictions to stay alive found faith in some of the most mundane sources: a game of baseball, a child's photo of a cloud, a dying mother's dying roses.

A startling and personal story, Crossbearer, written by a master memoirist, reveals a fresh, absolutely inspiring look at the importance of faith, values, family, and love.

What a life

Joe Eszterhaus had lived one wild and crazy life, starting at the beginning. But it took throat cancer to bring him to his knees. This isn’t a conversion, but more a book about a man trying to reconnect with his Catholic faith after years of Hollywood debauchery. It’s very fascinating. The best part is the master narrator Grainger Hines. He could read the phone book and make it delectable.
