Beginnings

By Lorraine Theall

Book Overview

Laura is reading a manuscript she wrote almost twenty years ago. At that time, she and her sister were on a driving trip to research their family history. Laura had been recently married to Alan and she was experiencing tension in her relationship with her husband because of a child from his previous marriage. Her sister, Deanne, a widow of two years, was still struggling to cope with her grief. The sisters rely heavily on each other for support and understanding in their changing lives. Laura unexpectedly learns much more than she had anticipated when she dreams of her great grandmother Ane as a young bride leaving Denmark and of her later life and struggles as a pioneer on the prairies of Nebraska. Laura wonders - are her experiences only dreams or some other phenomena. The sisters discover a great deal about their family and themselves, finding new beginnings in their own lives. This is a compelling story of family history, relationships, love and marriage.
