Literature-Fiction

Altar Music: A Novel

The psychological maturing and the spiritual journey of a human is from the core outward. In the imagery of music, the child learns first to sing a simple note . . . then a melody follows, then the heart expands the melody into a harmony–becoming a theme, growing from theme to a song and a song to a symphony. Not only every woman, but every one, male or female can identify with the pain, joy and hunger for understanding, the search for Love and need to Love told in ALTAR MUSIC.
      Elise, the culmination of three generations of women living in Minnesota, follows her family history of women killing their passions to protect their souls.  But in Elise, the core note is strong and it sustains her through the darkness of almost losing herself. Within her story, and in the stories of her mother and grandmother, I found a theme affirming my own humanity. ALTAR MUSIC is the literary symphony of a truly gifted soul.
Review written by Roberta L. Wolff.

The Clan of the Cave Bear
 Book | Film: VHS format | Film: DVD format
Other Editions: Hardcover, Audio Cassette (Unabridged), Large Print

Written by Jean M. Auel, this book (the first in the "Earth's Children" series by this author) is a captivating tale of human survival in a young and un-spoilt land. Following the life of Ayla, a small child orphaned during an earthquake and adopted by the Clan of the Cave Bear, we bear witness to the experiences our ancient ancestors went through. Sharing in their fears and triumphs, and the discoveries made that changed both their world and ours. Ayla's journey from small child to courageous woman defying the odds to survive, is a story that should definitely not be missed. Also see: Earth's Children : Clan of the Cave Bear/Valley of the Horses/Mammoth Hunters (Special Collector's Edition). Review written by S.T..

The Color Purple
VHS format | DVD format | Book

Directed by Steven Spielberg, this is a wonderful film that I have watched many times. Every time brings a new meaning and is a testimonial to the strength of a woman's spirit. FYI: Whoopi Goldberg was introduced to us in this film. Review written by Nancy Imelda Schafer.
