An epic novel set in the rugged interior of British Columbia, the
first volume of a trilogy which traces the lives of four
generations of a family of exiles. Beginning in 1900, and
concluding with the climactic events leading up to the Millennium,
the series follows Anne and Stephen Delaney and their descendants
as they live through the tumultuous events of this century.
Anne is a highly educated Englishwoman who arrives in British
Columbia at the end of the First World War. Raised in a family of
spiritualists and Fabian socialists, she has fled civilization in
search of adventure. She meets and eventually marries a
trapper-homesteader, an Irish immigrant who is fleeing the
"troubles" in his own violent past. This is a story about the
gradual movement of souls from despair and unbelief to faith, hope,
and love, about the psychology of perception, and about the
ultimate questions of life, death and the mystery of being.
Interwoven with scenes from Ireland, England, Poland, Russia,
and Belgium during the War, "Strangers and Sojourners" is a tale of
the extraordinary hidden within the ordinary. It is about courage
and fear, and the triumph of the human spirit.
