Ruth Esther Gilmore: Inking the Stones, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

A twist of fate finds a local architect dogged by war. Heavily preoccupied with the planning and the building of her new school building, she works with children and teenagers in changing their town's environment.

While she shares her architect's cabin with war refugees, she also continues to care for her father-in-law, who is dying from cancer.

The situation changes one morning. She is horrified to find enemy troops heading for her town. Can this disaster be stopped?

Only a peace treaty can save her and the people she works with. Can she achieve this unreachable goal? Will she find the strength to form the inked stones into simple words of peace, thereby proving that the pen is stronger than the sword?

This wonderful story of a courageous woman is written in the form of one long enduring poem.
