Canadian Author Publishes Account of his Journey after the Death of his Twin Brother

December 12, 2014 - "NAKED ANGELS," a new book written by Vincent Arthurs R.N., has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"NAKED ANGELS" is a candid and engaging account of one man's journey through grief following the death of his twin brother. After living through childhood abuse and battling rampant homophobia together as adults, Victor and Vincent are very much two halves of one whole. When Victor loses his battle with mental illness, Vincent is left to deal with severe trauma and the nearly overwhelming challenge of building a new life for himself. Through psychotherapy, Vincent has been able to reveal truths about his life with his twin and has learned to call himself a survivor.

The foreword for "NAKED ANGELS" is written by Dr. Barbara Klein, one of the foremost recognized authorities on twinship. Vincent Arthurs also draws on his many years as an R.N. and his experiences in dealing with traumatic death situations. This life-changing memoir is a true tale of the triumphs and tragedies of twinship.
