''Honestly, I was very moved by the story''s emotional power and the depth of the teachings it conveys. I found the story gripping from the very beginning, but I think what hit me the most was the account Evelyn Elsaesser wrote, in epistolary form, of James'' near-death experience. It is simply one of the best and richest accounts (even if it is fiction) of an NDE I''ve ever come across. I don''t think it is saying too much to claim that in itself this bit of writing is a masterpiece.'' -- Dr Kenneth Ring, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Connecticut ''Talking with Angel is a courageous book that forces us to confront our worst fears. In the end, however, Evelyn provides us with a sense of hope, a peace of mind, and an invitation into a realm of possibilities that is more beautiful than we can even imagine. Talking with Angel is a triumph for the human spirit.'' -- Dr Allan Botkin, author of Induced After Death Communication: A New Therapy for Healing Grief and Trauma ''Evelyn Elsaesser has written a beautiful book that I will recommend to my colleagues and, when appropriate, to clients.
It is not only well written, but the content is insightful and education. At one point it brought tears to my eyes. I''m confident it will be heartily welcomed by many professionals and non-professionals alike.'' -- Louis E. LaGrand, PhD, CT, Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus at the State University of New York ''This is an accurate and sensitive novel about life after death, written from the perspective of a dying girl. Her discovery of what anyone can now discover, namely the amazing Near-Death-Experience evidence for continued consciousness, will help all readers, old and young, in their approach to what will it seems turn out not to be our final moments. It will move you and it will help teach you how to face death.'' -- Prof.
Lance Butler, Professor of British literature of the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, Université de Pau et des Pays de l''Adour, France Chairman, The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre, Edinburgh, Scotland ''So intimate that you feel yourself ''inside'' the girl, caring what she thinks, feels, during crucial moments. The description of the near-death experience is among the most riveting accounts I have yet read about the phenomenon and its aftereffects. The book is simply incredible! Highly recommended for older children, parents, and anyone coming to grips with life and death issues - regardless of age.'' -- P. M. H. Atwater, author of The New Children and Near-Death Experiences and Beyond the Indigo Children ''In this very good and most important and comforting book, Evelyn Elsaesser uses a totally new and emotional approach by confronting the reader with the spiritual lessons to be learned from NDEs by becoming intimately involved in the story of a girl facing leukemia, and her transformation during the progression of her disease.'' -- Pim van Lommel ''"Talking With Angel" is a powerful story of a young girl who becomes a woman during her intense struggle with a life-threatening illness.
I recommend this book highly to every-one who values personal growth and spiritual transformation.'' -- Bill Guggenheim, author of Hello From Heaven ''Talking with Angel. is one of the most compelling, gripping books of all time. It grabs at your heart strings and doesn''t let go.A MUST READ for anyone interested in knowing more about the here after.'' -- Natalie Smith-Blakeslee, Near Death Experiencer, Professional Medium to Bereaved Moms and Dads and bereaved Mother herself ''I just finished reading Talking with Angel this morning, and had a good cry (shame on you for making a grown man cry!) Bravo. It is a wonderful, page turner of a story which imparts the very essence of the NDE without falling into the trap of being overtly expositional. I loved it.
