About the book
The Woman Who Lived Between the Walls is the latest publication
by Pauline M. Brown, a South Carolina poet and storyteller who writes to
communicate her compassion for people, her respect for the past, her concern
for the future, and her reverence for God.
An autobiography with allegorical overtones,
The Woman Who Lived Between the Walls recounts the many harsh and unexpected
trials and tribulations that one woman had to overcome in her thirty-year
journey toward self-understanding and self-acceptance. Mrs. Brown's religious
faith provided the support and consolation that she needed in order to
face her life with courage, and her book is a testimony to that faith.
About the Author
Pauline Mixson Brown was born on January 14, 1950, in Aiken County, South
Carolina, but was reared in Barnwell.
In 1968, Mrs. Brown began writing love letters every
day to her husband, who was serving in the Vietnam War, and she has been
writing steadily ever since that time. She loves to write, has five hundred
pen pals, and has composed more than five hundred poems. In the thirty
years since the Vietnam War ended, she has had dozens of changes to endure
and trials to overcome. As she looks back over her life, however, she gives
God the glory for making her a strong-minded and self-sufficient woman.
Although Pauline Brown and her husband took different
roads in life, still they remained friends. According to Mrs. Brown, “Life
is short, and only God knows everything. Now I have a new life in Christ,
and to God be the glory. Thanks be to Him and to each of you.”
