Eden Waits
Autor Maryka Biaggioen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 sep 2019
Although numerous utopian communities were formed in the United States in the nineteenth century, there are few accounts of the day-to-day life and challenges faced by them. Abraham and Elizabeth were in their advanced years when they homesteaded acreage in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. What drove them to risk so much to build a community of kin and like-minded idealists? This carefully researched historical novel explores the struggle between ideals and practicality and the collision of political and religious realms. The events bear surprising parallels to today's climate of polarization, questions about leadership, and concerns over corporate power.

Notă biografică
Maryka Biaggio, Ph.D., is a psychology professor turned novelist specializing in historical fiction based on real people. She enjoys the challenge of starting with actual historical figures and dramatizing their lives-discovering what motivated them to behave as they did, studying how the cultural and historical context may have influenced them, and recreating some sense of their emotional world through dialogue and action. Doubleday published her debut novel, PARLOR GAMES, in 2013. EDEN WAITS and THE POINT OF VANISHING were published by Milford House Press in 2019 and 2021. She lives in Portland, Oregon.
