Inhaltsangabe

When Adam awakes in the hospital, he does not remember his past, and he is impelled to ask the question, "Who am I?" And yet this question itself is already cradled in the awe of first discovery, in which his heart is stirred to childlike wonder and playfulness at his contact with a beautiful world that he had almost lost forever. But whenever his memory comes flooding back in, and his whole being is shaken by the trauma of a painful life, will he be able to retain his childlike wonder, and will he be able to answer this question, both for himself and for others?

Alojzy is Adam's great-uncle, a man from Poland who has sent ripples throughout history, but of whom Adam knows almost nothing. When he at last encounters him, in the most unexpected of ways, these ripples begin to echo within Adam's own heart. Throughout this novel, these two lives, and the lives of many others, are woven together in a tapestry that-while composed of light and darkness, of joy and sorrow, of profound hope and inexpressible anguish-is nonetheless a masterpiece of unspeakable beauty.

While written to stand alone, this is also the first book in the series, "The Song of the Dove." The second volume, carrying on the story begun here and bringing it to its conclusion, is entitled "Love Interlacing."

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Born in 1990 in Dumas, Texas, and after a long journey of discernment-including priesthood and various forms of monastic and eremitic life-Joshua Elzner has been living in the Texas panhandle a simple contemplative lay life since 2016, one marked by solitude, silence, and ordinariness in the presence of the Lord, though the roots of this calling and way of life go back much earlier. This contemplation is also the wellspring of his writing and creative activity, which he hopes shall be of benefit to his brothers and sisters and shall also help in the enrichment and renewal of the Church according to the central mystery of the love and communion of the Trinity that is her life, born of the opened Heart of the Paschal Christ who is our way into the very heart of God, and whose love is ever poured out in the heart of his Bride and indeed into every human heart, uniquely precious and beloved.
