Soul
Stories explores two worlds: the world we know with our feelings and
senses--sight, scent, touch, belonging, joy, loss, renewal--and the
parallel world of dreams, intuition, imagination, and the dimension of
the unknown. Together these realms inform, shape, challenge, and nurture
the soul.
Safari to Mara finds our heroine on
the brink of womanhood in Masai society. The only daughter in a sonless
family, she is drafted to do work in the modern world, yet tradition
calls her to prepare for initiation as a wife. In the wilderness of her
namesake, Kenya’s Masai Mara, she finds an improbable guide who leads
her into the mysterious recesses of her awakening heart.
Aria
of the Horned Toad begins with the dream of a horned toad crawling out
of Beatrice’s eyes,“so real I could feel his prickly little feet on my
nose.” And so begins an odyssey to the source of all dreaming. Beatrice
believes that in this dark and luminous place, she can find someone to
fashion a dream to fix her Mama’s terrible ways, and soothe the longing
in her own wild spirit.
