THE GAP - Kim Venskunas
- WHERE LIFE HAPPENS
The Gap, is a melding of both The Alchemist, and Wild.
The Gap traces Kim’s adventures as she tries to accommodate a new MS diagnosis with achieving her dreams.
Discovering that she might lose use of her legs, the race is on to fulfill her life’s mission of travelling and working around the world, searching along the way for love and meaning.
Across continents and cultures, her story navigates highs and lows, loves and loss, opportunities grasped and some misunderstood. She meets the love of her life at Uluru and travels to Glasgow to pursue the relationship only to watch it slip away.
She joins a UNESCO-sponsored course in an effort to find a career that might change the world, but her hopes are dashed as her MS worsens.
She travels to Southern Spain to seek a healthier, non-medical approach to managing her disease, treks through South America, and gets detoured to New Zealand on the promise of her perfect match.
Kim seeks enlightenment and meaningful work in India before meeting up with the father she hasn’t seen for three decades in Thailand and learning some home truths.
Behind her is the constant spectre of home – and it becomes clear that, despite her nomadic ways, she’s always been looking for a place to truly belong.
A chance message from her long lost Scottish love sees her returning to Scotland where she realises everything she’s been searching for was at home all along.
The book is a clarion call for those feeling trapped, misplaced or simply in need of encouragement, strength and support, in troubled times. It articulates that they can still achieve everything they desire and more despite being dealt a bad hand.
A little Eat, Pray, Love, a little Wild, a little Blindsided: Lifting a Life Above Illness, The Gap is a hopeful book about never giving up despite what life throws at you and how sometimes you can search the world for something that was within you all the time.
