Kathleen has always been dramatic. She suffers from the bizarre malady of experiencing stabbing pain in her feet. On her 16th birthday, she woke screaming from the sensation that her tongue had been cut out. No doctor can find a medical explanation for her pain, and even the most powerful drugs have proven useless. Only the touch of seawater can ease her pain, and just temporarily at that.

A contemporary tale of an ancient mythical longing
Revisado: 03-26-24
In spite of misgivings at having read a bad review of this book~ I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters are delightful and I found a seemingly unbelievable tale quite conceivable.

Enchantment. By Dr. Sharon Blackie’s definition, a vivid sense of belongingness to a rich and many-layered world, a profound and whole-hearted participation in the adventure of life. Enchantment is a natural, spontaneous human tendency - one we possess as children, but lose, through social and cultural pressures, as we grow older. It is an attitude of mind which can be cultivated: the enchanted life is possible for anyone. It is intuitive, embraces wonder, and fully engages the mythic imagination - but it is also deeply embodied in ecology, grounded in place and community.

Twelve-year-old Bo Bo lives with his uncle U Ba in Kalaw, a town in Burma. An unusually perceptive child, Bo Bo can read people’s emotions in their eyes. This acute sensitivity only makes his unconventional home life more difficult: His father comes to visit him once a year, and he can hardly remember his mother, who, for unclear reasons, keeps herself away from her son. Everything changes when Bo Bo discovers the story of his parents’ great love, which threatens to break down in the whirlwind of political events, and of his mother’s mysterious sickness.

Upon encountering the first of this series, The Art Of Hearing Heartbeats, it took me a little bit to really get into the story. Before long though I was deeply absorbed. At the end it was hard to let the richly developed characters go. I was so pleasantly surprised to find there was a sequel~ and especially pleased that it held up to the intricately woven quality of the first novel. When I entered this third volume I had more of a sense of how the author would unfold the story and dove in without hesitation. This book certainly did not disappoint. It gave me insight into not only human hearts and universal themes but a real interest in the richness of a culture so unlike the American one in which I exist. At first the change of the narrator and certain pronunciations distracted me, but not for long. Truly a deeply touching series!
