Sally,
Last night, the Evergreen Book Club had its meeting. We chose our books for the upcoming year. One of the books chosen was Physick Book of Deliverance Dane. It strikes me that it is similar to our idea for our next book. I still feel ours will be unique but I thought you and I should probably read this book to be sure that it is different.
Let me know what you think.
Love you,
Peggy

Peggy,
I don't think it even touches our book. We are not dealing with the Salem witch trials —but the true back story. Alice Lake died in 1651. The witch trials were not until the 1690's. Alice's tale is a sad one: post partum depression, zealots, and the interpretations of these events. We are talking about pre-marital sex and how each generation harbors its own story and the outcome of each one. These are our women, our mothers, and how we truly rock the cradle...with determination, with purpose and with strength.
Don't forget. This is our gift to our children and their children and so on. If we get rich and famous then so be it. This is our legacy and our immortality.
Sally
