Memoirs are truly beautiful. They give readers insight into the lives of individuals, condensing their experiences and lessons learned within a handful of pages. There is one particular title that is being dubbed as an “Ode to a life well-lived.” Author Barry Levitt presents his memoir Barry’s Life: The Adventures and Travels of a Guy from Chicago and L.A. The story spans from the Great Depression era in Chicago to the vibrant and bustling streets of Los Angeles. Through humor, wit, and a natural knack for storytelling, Levitt guides readers through his riveting experiences, anecdotes, and adventures that have made him who he is today.
Not only does Levitt paint a vivid picture of the changing times of the landscape growing up in Chicago, but also offers a glimpse into the broader social and historical context of the 20th century.
His daughters encouraged the author to preserve his stories for future generations as he embarked on a journey of writing his memoir and formulating this transformative book. Barry was a butcher who turned lawyer and CPA, traveling across all seven continents. His journey is incredibly inspiring, encouraging individuals to pursue their dreams. We also gain knowledge of Barry’s ancestors and the rich tapestry of his family’s history.
Mark, 21, a college student, had this to say about the book:
“Having grown up without a father, heading into college felt very overwhelming. I was afraid because, frankly, I thought that I had no one to watch over me. I had no wisdom to help me through the challenges that await me in life. Reading through Barry’s life, I felt as though he was speaking to me in a way. I found a father figure in the author, and it has helped me throughout my experience in college and personal life. Thank you, Barry, for this wonderful gift.”
Barry’s Life: The Adventures and Travels of a Guy from Chicago and L.A. is now available on Amazon.
