Cheryl Krkoc is an accomplished author whose captivating memoir, "Sentiment," delves into the intricate tapestry of her life, weaving together stories of her Slovenian immigrant grandparents, her passionate father, her delicate mother, and the extended family that shaped her upbringing in the vibrant city of Chicago during the 1950s.Born and raised in the Chicago area, Cheryl was enveloped in the rich cultural heritage of her Slovenian roots, nurtured by her grandparents' enduring love and the traditions they brought from their homeland. Her formative years were influenced by their strong presence and the values they instilled in her.However, Cheryl's life took an unexpected turn when her father, a dedicated Radiologist, relocated the family to the Pacific Northwest after completing his medical schooling in 1960. This significant move not only uprooted Cheryl from her familiar surroundings but also created a rift between her and her extended family, who remained in Chicago.Undeterred by the challenges of her new environment, Cheryl pursued her education, attending Seattle University for two years before completing her Bachelor of Arts degree at Willamette University in Salem, Oregon. Her thirst for knowledge and understanding led her to Portland State University, where she obtained her MSW degree and embarked on a meaningful career as a social worker in a mental health facility, dedicating sixteen years to helping others navigate their own journeys of healing and growth.As Cheryl built her own family, with three children and eight grandchildren, her experiences continued to shape her perspective on life and her understanding of her own identity. Inspired by her personal and family history, she penned the intimate memoir, "Sentiment," which delves into the depths of her emotions and the complexities of her relationships.In "Sentiment," Cheryl invites readers to join her on a transformative exploration of her cultural heritage, tracing the footsteps of her paternal grandparents and their migration from Slovenia to North America. Through her evocative storytelling, she reveals the divergent paths her relatives took, with some immigrating to Argentina due to the tightening immigration standards in the United States.This memoir is an intimate portrayal of Cheryl's life, from her upbringing in Chicago to her father's decision to start anew in Oregon. Alongside her sensual experiences, which served as a lens for understanding the world around her, she embarks on a quest to uncover her family's past, embarking on transformative journeys to her ancestral homeland.With each passing decade, Cheryl's narrative takes on a distinctive character, marked by shifting perspectives and new outlooks. Through introspection, she unearths personal and familial strengths, flaws, losses, and the haunting spectre of trauma. "Sentiment" serves as a testament to the human spirit, resilience, and the enduring power of family ties.Following the success and critical acclaim of "Sentiment," Cheryl Krkoc continued her literary journey with her second book, "Love Poems and Obsession," a poignant sequel that further explores the depths of her experiences and emotions. Through her remarkable storytelling, she captivates readers once again, inviting them into the profound and intricate tapestry of her life. Hosted on Acast.
