Dr. Drew Pinsky: "I commend you for having the courage to step up and do it and do it thoroughly and do it properly."

"Originally, the main purpose for writing this book was first to help heal myself and maintain a sense of humor as I vented.I found it was helping by opening a door to dialogue, with people especially about "taboo" subjects. It became my mission to help empower others through our experiences and maybe others will see how they too can help themselves, confront their demons, issues, seek answers, recognize patterns, listen to their instincts, get clarity, closure and healing. If people reach out and are open to change, miracles can happen. It's not to say it won't be painful, but we can transform our lives for the better. By bringing various sensitive issues out in the open, I hope this book sheds a beacon of light on a path for others to find their way as I did."

Two dynamic people merging into a karmic-destined, intense and turbulent love relationship. Each struggling with their own demons including sexual abuse and incest.They were married on the Warner Bros. back lot Larmie St. and their six-year relationship was a whirl of auditions, star-studded parties, exotic locations, red carpets and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Marina, already an established actress, became Carradine’s personal manager and set about rehabilitating David's the career, who was now known for his heavy drinking. She introduced him to Quentin Tarantino, who cast David in a lead role in the popular film Kill Bill, which vaulted Carradine back onto Hollywood's A-list.

Their marriage was marred by a toxic secret that could not be ignored and private life was replete with love, passion, erotic pleasure, sexual experimentation. With the help of re-known celebrity Dr. Drew Pinsky (Celebrity Rehab, Sober House), issues are addressed with the interview occupying an entire chapter. Anderson was able to exorcise the demons that have haunted her for so long about their relationship and herself that almost destroyed her.

Her writing speaks to readers universally by focusing on their personal journey, revealing the truth about the couple, addresses conquering fear and overcoming obstacles, self discovery, recovery, re-inventing and rebuilding one’s self. It’s her personal survival while desperately trying to save the marriage as well as Carradine’s constant struggle to be someone he wasn’t, but wished he could be. Spirituality, psychic John Edward, other psychics and astrologers who helped her are written about in the book as well

“It’s an avenue for his fans and the general public to know, understand and hopefully accept him as a man, not a celluloid fantasy…to be admired for his talents and the motivations behind certain issues in his life understood. We are all human beings with our faults. What we do for love. He was afraid people wouldn’t remember him. That will never happen. The legend continues.”

His acting career spanned four decades onstage, television and cinema. He became an international sensation as Kwai Chang Caine in the 1970s hit television series Kung Fu and cemented his cult hero status with his role in the classic movie Death Race 2000. He portrayed Woody Guthrie in Hal Ashby’s Bound for Glory and Bill in Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill films. Carradine received four Golden Globe nominations. He was a talented songwriter and musician and performed in a band called Cosmic Rescue Team.

David Carradine died in a Bangkok hotel room, June 3, 2009, an apparent victim of autoerotic asphyxiation. Amid sensational media speculation, Marina refused to let David’s death remain stigmatized like it was and launched her own investigation into the death of her ex-husband. Suicide? Foul play? A sex act gone wrong? Was he alone? Was there a cover-up? Her conclusions are startling.

Delightful interview with the son of the man that trained “Lassie”. What a nice break from the usual problematic characters we deal with day to day. Thank you so much.
