A SONG I KNEW BY HEART by BRET LOTT: During a cold Massachusetts winter, a tragic car accident leaves a mother childless and her daughter-in-law a widow. Naomi and Ruth are now each other's only comfort. Naomi lost her own husband eight years ago, and now she has lost her son. Carrying a deep secret in her soul, Naomi decides to return to her childhood home in coastal South Carolina. When she tells Ruth her plan, she receives an unexpected reply: "where you go, I will go." So the two women plan the journey together, arriving at a place that is flooded with a love they are nearly too fragile to accept. Surrounded by the warmth of their newfound family, Naomi and Ruth begin to find themselves reawakened-and open to the possibility of redemption. "Like a lovely, lyrical melody, this story celebrates the loves and lives of two women. This beautiful book moved me to tears." ---Angela Hunt, author of "Unspoken" "We can only admire the way Lott.creates and differentiates so many characters and sets them into action so naturally.A chance to visit a country of grace where the twisted roads of American literature seldom lead us." ---Los Angeles Times Book Review "With a gentle cadence, this story of Ruth floats off the pages of the Bible.and brings hope to every modern day Naomi." ---Robin Jones Gunn, author of "Sisterchicks on the Loose" and "Gardenias for Breakfast"
