Camilla Warrick wrote two books, with breast cancer as a key player in each of them, before she died of the disease in 2002. "The Invitation" is a work of fiction, about a woman who looks back into some of her difficult college years to try to piece together and make sense of her life situation. It was a quest Camilla herself was on for the last six years of her life. Her own account filled the many, many journals as she rigorously examined her own life and motivations. Those journals were the roots of her first book, "Home Is Where I Live."
"The Invitation" takes personal questioning and detective work to a more spiritual level, and indicates how hard one must try in order to live a meaningful and rewarding life.
