Voice Beyond Weeping - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Edmond, Oklahoma-Roberta McBride Damon knew her birth mother, Keith, died when she, Damon, was born. She grew up with Mary Lou, stepmother and second mother, the nurse who cared for Damon and her mother in the tiny hospital in Carnegie, Oklahoma, in the mid-1930's. But she was not told of another woman, May Anderson, who became her foster mother for the first two years of her life, undoubtedly saving her. In the mid-1990's, Damon discovered May Anderson and incorporated her into the pantheon of mothers who had made possible her life and survival. Damon's story weaves each woman's story into a rich tapestry of women's stories blended as a powerful biblical fabric in the allusion to Rachel and her children. Lost mothers and lost children meet and part to meet again in stories whose colors slowly merge into the rich clothing of redemption and return.
