Starting a book by Alice Walker reminds me of returning back to my sacred space. No one knows about it, and here I find that precious nectar that feeds the heart. Alice Walker manages to put to words that magical formula that binds the heart and the soul in an eternal dance. In this novel about Kate and Yolo, who are looking for something deeper and more true in themselves and their relationship to their world, I found myself pulled into a journey of mystery that ultimately leads to self-discovery. Yolo and Kate find new ways of being themselves and therefore a new way of being together that leads to a kind of union and marraige ceremony neither had even imagined before.
Thanks, Alice Walker.
