Silver to Gold: A Journey of Young Revolutionaries

We all need a little inspiration once in a while and Jennifer Miskov, a postgraduate student at the University of Birmingham, is sending a huge wave of it our way in the form of her new book Silver to Gold. I regularly bump into Jennifer at the University but I had no idea that she was writing a book, so when I asked her about the content she told me the following:

”Silver to Gold is a tale of struggle, friendship, love, loss… Above all, its a tale of the adventure of pursuing a deep-rooted dream, the type of dream that you can feel flowing through your veins. You cannot shake it. You are being beckoned towards your full potential. Nothing less will satisfy. It is the type of dream that you are sure others are as committed to as you… aren’t they?

With a vast and callous army pressing down on them fast, there is nowhere for Desire and the other Young Revolutionaries to run. Her situation is desperate. This is not how her journey is supposed to end, certainly not before it has even truly begun. The legend is strong. Desire knows it offers escape and hope. More than that, it promises fullness and abundance. That is, after all, why she set out. But what will Desire do when faced with the choice of pursuing her dreams when others choose something different?

In a world where so many dreams never make it reality, Desire’s journey will inspire, challenge, and encourage you to dust off those dreams that have lied dormant and move forward to take hold of them once again."


I am steadily reading through my copy of the book and I have found it not only to be a great read, but also very thought-provoking and inspiring, particularly at this time of year when life can get very stressful. I would certainly recommend a copy to anyone in need of a motivational boost, especially if they are engaged in any type of academic study or pursuing a dream that seems distant or unobtainable.
