The novel is a mix of fantasy and reality. It defines different
forms of evil and contrasts them with goodness and innocence in a
format that is both serious and funny. One morning young teen
sisters decide to go for a walk, not realizing that this outing
will change them forever. They become trapped in a strange land
where the outrageous and bizarre seem normal. They only wish to
find their way home; but this journey, which is not of their
choosing, has a different purpose or so it seems as they are forced
on their way. The people and animals they meet are outlandish or
eccentric or sometimes normal. Each has a lesson to teach or
perhaps not. They are bombarded with sense and with nonsense that
may or may not be nonsense. In their minds, they fight to remain
children, but they are neither child nor adult. Deep inside the
sisters progressively understand that there is a purpose to their
journey and that it has to do with good and evil. But they are
neither free from torment nor from the absurd. They must overcome
the temptation of evil if, in fact, they can recognize it.
Interwoven with the sisters' story are real life tales of good and
of the arrogance and depravity of evil (as in the Holocaust), thus
defining the nature of good and evil. Allegorically, this is
everyone's journey and everyone's story. A non-traditional novel
for Adults and Young Adults
