Celebrity Reviews:

“Othello Bach is a force. And this book proves it.” – Joel Grey

 “Cry into the Wind is a page-turner from beginning to end. It is a compelling story of survival and an inspiring testament to the strength of the human spirit and raw determination.” – Dave Pelzer, author of A Child Called It

 “As illustrator of four of Othello’s books, I’m sure that her hilariously inventive take on life must have helped her overcome many obstacles.” – Sandy Huffaker, nationally syndicated political cartoonist, fine artist and illustrator

Amazon Review:

“Cry into the Wind” is an autobiography that you cannot stop reading… It is not a dirge of self-pity. It is a celebration of survival. When I finished the last page, I went to the prologue and read the book again. That is the highest compliment I can give an author.
