Non-Fiction Memoir
On television, Kevin Sorbo portrayed an invincible
demigod; in his real life, a sudden health crisis left him
partially blind and incapacitated at just thirty-eight
years old. Yet since appearances are everything in
Hollywood, he hid the full details about his condition from
the press and continued to film Hercules, which was
the number one TV series in the world. In this inspiring
memoir, Sorbo shares the story of the crisis that
ultimately redefined his measure of
success. True Strength is the story of
transformation, persistence, and hope in the face of
seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Sorbo reflects on his
childhood in Minnesota and his early acting days in
Hollywood, to his charmed life as television’s beloved
Hercules, and where he is today. He recounts the onset of
his symptoms, his frightening hospitalization, and his
arduous path to recovery. With this honest account of
personal tragedy and triumph, Sorbo aims to blaze a trail
for those who have ever suffered acute illness or a serious
setback in life and are now struggling to find their way back.
