After a terrible storm kills her husband in 1830, Polish peasant Regina sets off on a walking pilgrimage to the Shrine of the Black Madonna. When an accident disrupts her plans and throws her faith in doubt, a strange band of gypsies offers help. Time Is a Pilgrim is a tale of women living in a time of suspicion and fear until a time-traveling American, a medieval queen and a gypsy's forecast open windows into a world beyond their tiny village.
About the Author
Born and raised in Amsterdam, NY, a town that is a major character in my memoir, Off Kilter, and my novel, Where the Stork Flies, I now share an empty nest with my retired scientist husband in beautiful Bucks County, PA, where I volunteer at the historic home of author Pearl S. Buck. As a former journalist and teacher of memoir workshops, I write about the connections we make by giving each other the time and space to be heard. My personal essays have been widely published in newspapers and literary journals, both print and online. I\'m also a quilter, knitter and trail walker, and the proud mother of two grown sons.
