Nikki Friedlander, of Old Forge and Palm Beach Gardens, FL, will sign copies of her new book, The Divine Journey, at the Old Forge Hardware book department on Saturday, May 25 from 1 to 3 p.m.
The Divine Journey tells the story of Tori Litchfield, a woman who embarks on an unorthodox spiritual journey following a series of personal challenges. Her quest is to make peace with herself and her family through a deepening connection to the divine.
Friedlander graduated from the New York Fashion Academy in 1956, and has been a resident of Old Forge since 1958.
The inspiration for the book, she said, comes from her love of journaling and traveling, but most importantly, from the teachers she has come in contact with along the way.
“We are all spirits having a human experience, not humans having a spiritual experience, and we have to wake up to that and honor it. So when you have teachers who teach you that what we think is a reality is actually an illusion, it really changes your perception of what life is really about,” Friedlander said.
Friedlander will be conducting two more local book signings in the next month. She will be available at View on Sunday, June 9 from noon to 4 p.m. and at the Old Forge Library on Tuesday, June 25 at 7:30 p.m.
