Edith Hughes-Hill’s Novel Gets Readers to Reflect on Their Own Marriage

Is a marriage to an unloving partner worthy living – and fighting for? Should one hold fast to his or her beliefs about marriage no matter the circumstances? Readers will ask themselves these questions when they read Edith Hughes-Hill’s self-published novel “Existing in The SHADOWS.”
 
A follow-up to 2011’s “Wings Can Be Mended,” the novel is five years in the making. “Existing in The SHADOWS” tells the story of Tina Smothers, who is married to a narcissistic husband. She happens to be a firm believer in the sanctity of marriage. As her marriage goes through a rough patch, Tina strives to save her marriage as she firmly believes her true love will convert her husband. Will she succeed?
 
“Existing in The SHADOWS” deals with marriage as its central theme and abuse, love, suffering, and choice as the major or minor themes – all these themes will help readers navigate through Tina’s story and put themselves in her shoes. Her story will bring readers to pause and meditate on their own relationship with their spouse or partner. A novel like “Existing in The SHADOWS” should not only help us empathize with couples in a troubled marriage but also help to self-examine ourselves in such a relationship.
 
Is Tina’s marriage a hopeless case and her devotion to her husband misguided? Will her beliefs undo an already patchy marriage? Better read Hughes-Hill’s “Existing in The SHADOWS” to find out.
 
“Existing in The SHADOWS” was one of the many books displayed at the recently concluded 2017 Book Expo America.
