Postcards from Heaven: Messages of Love from the Other Side

Nearly all of us either have had or have heard of an experience in which a soul already departed reaches back to us who have been left behind.... Sometimes its no more than a whisper a familiar smell in the air or just the feeling of presence as vivid as when the loved one was still alive. These moments are just that...moments a glimpse behind the veil; not a letter from heaven but a postcard. (Dan Gordon Postcards from Heaven) . A postcard from heaven is not a revelation from on high -- rather its a whisper a familiar smell in the air or just the feeling of presence of someone whos passed away. It is just enough of a message to imply that what we call life is not ended by what we call death. Dan Gordon has been receiving these postcards all his life -- from his father his older brother and his son Zaki who was killed in a car accident when he was only twenty-two. Postcards from Heaven is the beautiful inspirational memoir of four generations of a remarkable family and how they remain interconnected a part of one anothers stories even after passing to the other side. Here is the span of his fathers long life moving and funny from the Russian Revolution to his improbable Depression-era courtship of a woman named Goddess -- Gordons mother -- to his spiritual later years in Israel; his incorrigible older brothers mischievous magic able to find humor even in cancer treatment; and his brilliant son a natural storyteller who looked destined to follow his father into the movie business. These are the stories of their lives on earth as well as after death. Full of humor compassion and love Postcards from Heaven comforts and assures us that those we loved can reach back to those of us still on earth -- and if only we are attentive enough to listen we can hear them say Got here safe. Its really beautiful. Much love till we meet again.
