Famed TV news anchor, Esther Le Beau-Kerr, wishes to whisk you away with her on a dramatic flight of fancy from the brink of doom to a monastic Brigadoon in the Berkshires. Share her adventurous encounters with horrendous loss, transcendent gain, astounding discovery: new life, ancient truth, eternal love. This imaginary vagary of desperate escape and heroic rescue from an apocalyptic catastrophe is especially appropriate during these dire days in a scary era, when scenarios such as the "Benedict Option" are being bandied about, pondering the practicality of banding together in an exodus from regions of wreck and ruin to idyllic sanctums of reason and rectitude. Readers may will be inspired to go forth and do likewise.
