Attachment Patterns. A psychological theory that addresses human relationships. Are the artist, Robert Boones' connections broken? Is he losing his mind? As his daughter, aspiring novelist, Isolde Boone, tells us, he sure doesn't think so. Yes, he recently found himself in the hospital declaring he wanted to die, but that was a moment of weakness, of post-pandemic exhaustion. He's fine now, calm, and self-possessed as always. Only the doctors don't believe him. They've insisted he enroll in a three week, out-patient, therapy program. With no choice now, Robert Boone will look at his life. In lectures and groups, he will examine his past, his unspoken fears and grief and his relationships both old and new. As daughter, Holdie says: "Anything I tell you was disclosed to me, remembered by me, surmised by me and in some cases (okay, more than some) was totally and completely made up. (By me.) Still, all of it is God's honest truth."

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free.
