Reviews & Testimonials for Bitter Drops In A Cup Of Happiness:

Thank you my friend for sending me your book…I actually read it again to my husband…he was as moved as I was!! Not only by your extraordinary ability to write so poetically and with such description that you can feel… taste…touch and focus in on the scenery before you, but have the ability to take a scenario that would cause the strongest among us to flinch and make it seem like a party!! As I wipe away the tears dear Rosemarie ... I can only take a deep breath and whisper 'Thank you Lord for Rosemarie and Michael's lives and the legacy they leave for others to take courage and receive strength and inspiration to endure their own race with the same grace and love that is expressed in this book.' Oh... to be an OAK TREE !!! BJ

Dear Rosemarie ,
Your two beautiful love stories woven together into an intriguing, exciting trip…that includes adventure, imagination…all the senses brought into play... took my breath away.. I couldn't put it down until I completed the reading! You have such a captivating way with words that are woven together in such an unusual fashion that many will want to read and enjoy and be carried away to another day and another time…without ever leaving their home or packing a suitcase!!
Many do not have the opportunity or imagination to live such a fruitful life and you bring that life and richness to your audience enriching their lives and calling them a little higher into a more
imaginative way of living!! Thank you for allowing me to enter into a world that I would otherwise never have experienced ... into another culture different from my own …that I have never lived!! It is the true joy of reading and enjoying artists’ paintings….as authors and painters truly open up new worlds and vistas and cause your imagination to pick up new clues and ideas and ideals to emulate… interweave into your own world!

Hi Rosemarie, The story of you and Michael must be published! It is an amazing true story and should serve as a lesson in love, compassion and perseverance. Love, Ricardo

Rosemarie, I have just finished reading your book. I can't get over the descriptive writing and the heartfelt sentiment that is on every page! I can just see this book as movie material! A movie of the week! With a warning for viewers: have a box of tissues nearby.
Have a great day!

Hi Rosemarie:
I was reading your book every night, like an addict. You really draw the reader in and get them hooked, emotionally! Along with vivid descriptions-good combination, Rosemarie !

"Rosemarie's book is a true amazing, poetic and inspirational story (and lesson) on what real love should be. You will not be disappointed. This is a must-read!" Ricardo

I can just see this book as movie material-with high adventure and romance played out across Europe, Africa, and the North American continent. Then-the heart wrenching challenges that griped Rosemarie and Michael as they were beginning their dream-come-true life together. Rosemarie’s story celebrates life, love, and the triumph of spirit, despite unbelievable odds. I recommend the book for anybody and everybody-don’t wait for the movie, since we all know the book version is usually better, right?

Rosemarie was born and raised in Germany. She followed a career in medicine from which she took a break in 1970, heading to Vancouver, BC, Canada from where she criss-crossed North America as a free-lance travel writer and photographer. In 1972 she moved to South Africa. A move that changed her life as she once knew it when she met her late husband at the airport in London, England, where she had to change planes. And this is her story.
