Letters to Lila

By Michael Brandon

About the Book

Letters to Lila began in the hardest period of Michael Brandon's life — after his marriage fell apart and he faced the loss he couldn't outrun: losing his relationship with his daughter.

These are the letters he wrote when he didn't know if he'd get the chance to say any of it in person. They are about love that doesn't negotiate. About fatherhood as a calling, not a role. About the kind of man a daughter deserves — and the work of becoming him.

This is not a parenting book. It is a father speaking honestly, from the wreckage, about what matters most.
