Burning Stone (Paperback, New)

In her third book, Zoe Landale explores the darkened rooms of family myth and history. Focusing on family members from the past--matrons, suicides and brilliant eccentrics--she investigates their lives and the shadowy but potent power they exert over the present. Especially powerful is the description of the earlier women of Landale's family--strong yet struggling to find their own voices. Burning Stone enacts a journey into the light, the generation of understanding and forgiveness within the family.
