The Turning Point is a glimpse into the most important and fascinating moments of people’s lives. A beautifully presented collection of entries to an international writing competition, it contains stories about the loves, tragedies, and momentous decisions that changed lives forever. A captivating insight into the human condition.
We’ve all heard the phrase ‘the moment when my life changed forever’. Some of us can even pinpoint it in our own lives: the birth of a child, the acceptance letter to a degree programme, or the decision to make a momentous change. The Turning Point is an anthology of personal accounts, showcasing the extraordinary and unexpected moments that have completely altered everyday lives.
Each of the 40 stories in this book offers a rare glimpse into the turning point of the writer’s life.

This is the perfect book to read in snapshots or to dive into and not resurface until you’ve read every fascinating account. Beautifully presented, it makes an ideal addition to your coffee table or a gift for a loved one. With sections on Love, Changes, Momentous Decisions, Tragedy, Vivid, and Learning Moments, every reader is sure to find stories which relate and inspire.
Pick up The Turning Point today and find out about the moment when love came along in a note under a windscreen wiper, when the death of a new friend inspired a teenager to live life to its fullest, and more, in this captivating insight into the human condition.
