Críticas:
"This book begs to be seen as a major motion picture!"-Al Zuckerman, founder of Writer's House and best-selling author of Writing the Blockbuster Novel "Running from the Mirror is vivid and engrossing from start to finish. As much as Shulman is influenced by his physical appearance and his childhood traumas, he is also driven by an inner resolve to create a better life for himself."-D. Donovan, senior reviewer, Midwest Book Review "What an amazing, inspirational story. The author has such heroic drive and strength that I found myself thinking of Mask. This all-too-true tale of personal redemption and growth should touch a nerve in every reader."-Gregory Lawrence, author of the New York Times best-seller Dancing on My Grave
