Sunday Awakening

This is a blend of old-fashioned romance, history, and science fiction. Rita, the central figure, is a bright but wounded divorcA(c)e seeking to understand how a sensitive romantic could find herself, at the age of forty, frequenting singles bars and leaving each time not only minus Robert Redford, but feeling depressed and ashamed. When we meet Keith, her lover (a man from the stars), a whole new dimension is added to the story. Keith and his people have been visiting Earth for centuriesa]For eons. They were involved with the great flood, the advanced Central American civilizations of the past, and other important events in history. Keith shares with Rita the fascinating story of why and how he came to Earth. The mode of relating is, in itself, fascinating and while there is a bit of irony in the fact that the only good man left on Earth reveals himself to be from another planet, the importance of the book is that it is about aLOVE.a
