What People Are Saying About “Into the Black Sea,” the book.

“{Kevin} reflects on… challenges in a way that is not only hysterically comical, but poetically sobering, humbling and inspiring all at once… I smiled from ear to eat when I was given an autographed copy of the book this Christmas. It’s that great.  If you’re dealing with any kind of “stuff,” this is the book for you.

            – Jessica de la Cruz, In Focus North

“Kevin has written a master class about living and loving in the face of adversity and loss. With humor, grace, and a command of language, Into the dark Sea will have you returning again and again to the wisdom in these stories.”

            – Stuart Stotts, Kennedy Center Artist

“I am in awe of the memoir Kevin McMullin’s experience inspired:  interesting, wry, caustic, heartbreaking, hopeful, upbeat, solid, honest … all of the above and more. In the wake of chaos, he’s created a masterpiece.”  

  –  Jude Genereaux, Writer

“Kevin isn’t just writing about his life – he’s writing about yours… a powerful juxtaposition of simultaneous experiences and though you may not have gone through the same exact thing, you have (or will eventually have) experienced something similar.”

            –  Randy Sabien, Musician

“I am stunned. I feel like I just came back from a long journey and am all at once heartbroken, hopeful, angry, raw, soothed, smiling, crying, laughing, confused encouraged and finally, utterly peaceful. What an achievement this book is. Physically took my breath away at times.”

            – Anne Marie Wistad, Artist

“It is so blasted GOOOOD! The stories are so varied and interwoven with… masterful wordsmithing, the sorrow mixed with strength, all so REAL. A masterpiece.”
