| Two years living on a small island in the Caribbean provided the inspiration for a trilogy of works by Nora Ryan. Across the Great Divide is a novel exploring the divide caused by race and socio-economic circumstances and the ability of the human spirit to bridge the divide. It's a spiritual love story that probes the quiet recesses of the soul, provoking the reader to examine his own response to the human condition. Cracked Conch is a collection of short stories and poems that delivers a series of vignettes into the lives of a colorful cast of misfits and mischief-makers all shaped by that exquisite tapestry of life woven on sun- drenched islands. Marie's Story is the poignant account of a young Haitian girl with AIDS. The reader is brought on a journey through the landscape of rural Haiti and into the lives of children as they struggle and triumph in a haphazard and uncertain world. |
