Triple award recipient in its print version, Beyond All Desiring reveals the deep secrets of Sara, a woman who was “different” in a time of conformity, and who changed the lives of those close to her. When Sara’s niece, Janice, is notified that her sharp-witted aunt, now in her 80s, hasn’t been seen for several days, Janice’s panicky drive to find out what’s happened begins our journey of discovering that Sara has led a life very different from what her relatives and friends assume. Historical events of the 20th century form a backdrop to Sara’s often tumultuous personal life, which we follow from Trenton, NJ, to Washington, DC. As Sara visits a museum exhibit about Buddhism, we learn of her two marriages--the first to an abusive man and the second to a kind man who was involved in top secret projects and who develops a bizarre illness. We discover her long but secret love relationship with a woman. And we learn of hidden booklets which hold the key to yet another secret. With erotic passages and elements of magical realism.
Beyond All Desiring edition by Judith Laura Literature Fiction eBooks
This is a beautifully written novel about a woman no one in her family understands. She is an old woman when the novel opens, but we come to understand the life she lived as a teen during the Depression and a young woman during World War II, and the effect these experiences had on her. Things she did when young, which many of us today would consider acceptable, had to be hidden from family members back then if you wanted them to like you and if you wanted to keep your job. The main character, Sara had deep, lasting love relationships with both men and women. She lived without a telephone or TV, and kept to herself a lot.There are also a number of other interesting characters: Sara's niece, Janice, a work-at-home mom; and her unmarried, career-conscious sister Barbara; Sara's rather weird husband, Harry, and others. Judith Laura has a way of bringing you inside the characters so that you see the world as they see it.
