“‘CONTRAST’ not only entertains but also inspires deep contemplation. This book is a journey of self-discovery, a meditation on the human experience, and a portal into a realm where the boundaries between present and past blur, revealing the interconnectedness of all life. It is a timeless gem that will captivate and challenge readers for generations to come.”
- Andy Chaleff, Author of The Connection Playbook: A Practical Guide to Building Deep, Meaningful, Harmonious Relationships
What people say about CONTRAST; a novel:
“Thoughtful, surprising existential adventure between life and death.
Coussement debuts with a searching speculative drama about the meaning of life and death and how emotional wounds from our past affect our future. [While] very much a novel of the mind, Coussement’s style allows readers to feel like they are hanging out with familiar friends,
somewhere between this world and the beyond.”

About Linda.
Linda Coussement has been exploring meaning and purpose for many years by intertwining an 18+ year-long career in corporate business consulting with travel, teaching yoga, cofounding a sustainability start-up, photography, and studying the metaphysical concept of meaningful relations. The latter included a yearlong journey across Europe to ask over a hundred people “How is it to be you?”
Through fiction, non-fiction, and artistic photography, she helps seekers of existential meaning find their inner compass and craft their own path. Linda has recently published her debut magical realism novel ‘CONTRAST’
