Book Details

GENRE: Memoir

BLURB:

Aunt Kathy made his childhood miserable—now her funeral might just set him free.
In this wickedly funny and deeply honest memoir, Harold Phifer revisits the chaos of growing up
under the thumb of a domineering aunt who ruled with twisted wisdom and unpredictable wrath.
As he plans her awkward memorial, Hal finds healing in the most unexpected place: her
absence. My Bully, My Aunt, and Her Final Gift is a heartfelt journey through trauma, truth, and
the strange gifts we inherit from those who hurt us most.

Excerpt One:

Sad, because the animals had no voice. Life was a flip of the coin for grass, garbage, or grease.
Yet, with any luck, they got to pig out with the trash instead of dinner on a skewer. Even the
locals walked a fine line but to nobody’s envy. They were determined and driven, with plenty of
needs to go around. Their missions rarely changed. It was always constant and consistent as of
yesteryear, yesterday, today, and any time going forward. Their struggles were real and
imperative to survive. Food on the table wasn’t a given.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

Harold Phifer was born in the rebellious South of Columbus, Mississippi. As a kid, he worked
the streets, hustled the neighbors, and bused tables at bars he didn’t belong in. After graduating
from Caldwell High School, he went on to earn degrees from Mississippi State and Jackson
State Universities. He became an Air Traffic Controller in Memphis, Tennessee, but after 23
years, he sought purpose elsewhere—working as an international contractor alongside soldiers
in Iraq and Afghanistan. After narrowly escaping the Taliban takeover in 2021, he took refuge at
Guantanamo Bay and resumed his writing while continuing his work as a controller. In 2024, he
returned to the Middle East, where he continues to write about life, love, and the human spirit.
