Tao of LoveA vintage story set in 1989, 'Tao of Love' concerns Annabelle, a survivor of abhorrent childhood abuse, stalwartly determined to create a better life for her daughter Sarah. In a rare stroke of good luck, Annabelle meets Eddie, a handsome and unselfish young man who provides the underpinnings of pleasure and support, along with philosophical inspiration based on the teachings of the Tao. Written in carefully-wrought, spare prose, and seamlessly combining beautiful instances of heartfelt poetry, 'Tao of Love' stands as a testament to the restorative power of love and the beauty of human relations. |
