Life doesn’t always follow the path that one expects it to. In this memoir, author David Marty narrates the story of his life’s path and the challenges he overcame on the journey. Living Beyond Rainbows presents a candid view of what it’s like to be a gay professional. It tells the emotional story of a gay man who confronts the realities of his parents’ death, his mid-life crisis, self-employment, diabetes, sexual addiction, and his HIV diagnosis in 2006. Through his narrative, Marty communicates the importance of self-esteem and the need for strong role models, providing personal examples of his enduring relationship and bond with Esther, a remarkable older woman who helps him make sense of his own destiny.Marty’s story puts a real face on AIDS and sexual addiction, demystifies HIV, and replaces fear and ignorance with honesty and information. Living Beyond Rainbows conveys the many lessons Marty has learned on his journey, but most importantly-that life is a gift.
