Opis

An earthquake has destroyed the center of a Sicilian town. Architect George Nobel is charged with creating a plan for its restoration. At about the same time, someone finds a mysterious piece of art in a South American jungle - a relief carved in slate. Art historian Charlotte Vermeer gets the assignment to catalogue the relief. Solace of Stone chronicles their separate stories. Charlotte is pregnant after a passionate love affair with an opera singer, a love affair she had considered completely improbable. Stretching to find new directions in new places, she learns once again to value her future and that of her child. George is confronting a failing marriage and his father's death. Drowning in cynicism, he is tempted to turn his back on the world, until he recognizes the importance of his town project. When the two meet, they consider the prospect of a future together. http: //www.solaceofstone.co
