NEW, REVISED AND CORRECTED EDITION 2025
This unique novel is the story of a middle-aged middle-school teacher who takes her classes on a trip to London. The well-organized routine of her journey is rapidly altered by an accident. She undergoes an unexpected encounter that turns rapidly into an odd relationship. Through situations that sometimes seem mindboggling to her but comical with hindsight, her vision of right and wrong gets rapidly out of understanding. Her welling feelings will transform her acceptance of a simple, dutiful existence into an overwhelming desire to get a chance for a second life with someone beyond her expectations. But we only live once, don’t we?
This weird romance of a heartrending dilemma evolves into questioning women’s condition in modern society and our ability to embrace our destiny on our heart’s command. Mind over matter and especially, mind over feelings is a rule that governs our existence while we pretend desperately to be free to do what we want. Sentiments are only one, today often unmentionable, almost shameful part of our existence. The world you live those sentiments in is an entirely different matter. Happiness is beyond human nature for good reason.
