An unforgettable tale of dreams pursued in Tolkien's Oxford and romantic Paris
Autumn 1965- Returning from their honeymoon, newlyweds David and Kate MacKenzie are greeted with revelations that will change their worlds forever. David, a dashing Oxford don, has exhilarating news to announce to his stunning American bride. Kate has been harboring her own announcement-one that is met with personal misgivings.
The Oxford University Inklings Society entwines David and Kate with celebrated author J.R.R. Tolkien and their circle of friends, including successful scholar Yvette Goodman and the grieving widower Austen Holmes. On the precipice of her twenty-ninth birthday, Yvette longs for love yet fears she will never find it. For Austen, the ache of grief from his young wife's death leaves him grappling to heal and regain life without her.
In the midst of unexpected challenges, longing, and grief, will David, Kate, Yvette, and Austen learn to trust God and discover a newfound joy that surpasses their wildest expectations? Join them on a journey of dreams fulfilled in this captivating narrative of desire, loss, love, and the renewal of hope.
"The wonder of C.S. Lewis's and J.R.R. Tolkien's Oxford, the joy of romance, and the challenge of faithful commitment in a fallen world-in Melanie Jeschke's gifted hands, these are the ingredients for a great love story and, more importantly, a renewed and renewing celebration of God's grace and mercy."
-Dr. Bruce Edwards
C.S. Lewis scholar and author of Further Up & Further In: Understanding C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
