Left Unread

Left Unread: The Stories Behind the Songs of Noel Carol is the poignant and inspirational life story of Noel Carol, narrated by eh scharpe a.k.a. b phlatt, as told through the lens of a lifetime of songs he has written. Growing up in rural Quebec, Noel discovered his passion for music at the age of eight, with dreams of becoming a rock star. However, impulsive choices led him down a tumultuous path marked by addictions and infidelities that led to his marital breakdown, emotional collapse, and eventual homelessness. The deaths of two childhood friends served as a further breaking point, plunging him into even deeper despair.

Despite these formidable hardships, Noel composed songs that captured the highs and lows of his journey, providing the foundation for this book. Throughout his trials, he heard an inner voice-believed to be God-that inspired many of his creations, including the song that sparked this narrative. Although he recognized this inner voice as a guiding and protective force, it took him 20 years of resistance before he finally began to surrender to it, embracing his divine purpose with a determination to demonstrate the transformative power of faith.

A testament to resilience, faith, and divine love, Left Unread will inspire readers on their life and spiritual journeys, encouraging them to trust in divine guidance as they pursue their dreams and discover their purpose, ultimately leading them toward complete understanding, forgiveness, acceptance, and healing.
