New Releases by Paul Stevens

Hail to the human spirit!...It''s the little things that keep it going: a sudden shower on the parched and barren earth, a wedding, a birth, the unexpected return of a wanderer. Those are the lovely petals from the flowering of our lives...the petals in the dust. They''re with us for a few moments...then they''re gone. But we rejoice, and we remember. Grace Harrison, a noted but embittered authoress, returns to her home town for a class reunion. After all these years, her resentment against the place and its people still burns searingly, scorching those whom she blindly believes to have been inadvertently responsible for her mother''s death. Then in one quietly simple act, she, too, finds her "petal in the dust."
