Description
Of all possible problems, Susan never dreamed her marriage's bright future would be dimmed by so ordinary an object as Anna's rocking chair.
SUSAN -- the ebullient young bride, unprepared for life amok superstition and struggle.
ABE --strong and silent, living his love through concern and care.
OLIVE -- trapped in a tragic--but prestigious-- life.
JOSEPH -- born of nobility, tortured by weakness.
This is a story of contrasts --good breeding and bad; superstition and logic; poverty and plenty; superior and inferior cultures; life and death. But bridging the gaps is finally accomplished through the deep and abiding love of man for woman, and of man of God.
