FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description "This is my memoir - a very personal story of families and fate."The Fate We Make: Heartbreak, is the first volume of a remarkable, occasionally tragic, but ultimately redemptive coming-of-age story. From an early age, Simone Warren recognized that she was caught between her familys expectations and her need to find her own path and voice. Born into a Singaporean Chinese family and a life rooted in tradition, her story is a stunning tale of survival and an inspiring look at how we can learn to move beyond trauma to forge a path toward finding happiness.Raised in a family populated with strong women but laced with the strife of the generations that preceded her, Simones life story reads like an inter-continental odyssey that follows her from an exceptional childhood, through her tumultuous teens and toward young womanhood - as she endeavours to make peace with a decision that she will live with forever. Recounting in beautiful detail the lives of the powerful women who shaped her family and how their stories informed her place in the world, this first instalment in a trilogy of deeply personal memoirs is an unflinching look at finding oneself in the midst of crushing expectation and unexpected tragedy. Journeying beyond survival to success. In 2022, seemingly successful as a senior director working for a global technology solutions provider, life throws Simone another curve ball - life-threatening hypertension and potential broken heart syndrome. Now she must revisit what happened when she was seventeen, re-tracing her journey through heartbreak and depression, so she can find the ghosts from her past who haunt her still.
