O knihe

The first of two memoirs, IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU is the story of Karin Keays' life as the wife and business partner of Australian music legend, Jim Keays. It is a real-life rock 'n' roll romance and possibly the first such book to be written from the unique perspective of a woman who lived and worked for 25 years in the inner sanctum of rock 'n'roll royalty. Commencing in 1988, when Karin first met Jim, through to laying to rest their son's ashes in 2013, it is gripping read that is at times vastly amusing, fascinating, insightful, and deeply tragic. It is the story of a fairy-tale life that goes suddenly and shockingly wrong, turning into a nightmare of maternal loss and grief. It is the story of a woman whose relentless quest for answers as to why her son died led to a courtroom drama that stretched over two years. Set amidst the dizzying highs and devastating lows of life in the Australian music industry, Karin finds herself staring down the powerful medico-legal industry in the Coroner's Court, all while keeping the family business, her family and herself afloat. Ultimately, it is an inspirational story of Karin's healing and redemption through learning to trust her own intuition and follow her inner guidance, even in the face of compelling opposition. A subtle reminder to all women of the importance of retaining their own personal power, for the greater good of all. IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU is published through Contempo Publishing.
