Kindness Stones

';In this book,' Mark Allan Powell says, ';I offer the world the best that I can do: often humorous but sometimes poignant stories to engage the heart, soul, and mind.' Here readers will meet a man who has fallen in love seven times, but never fallen out; a teacher whose devotion to children has (so far) distracted her from a guilty past and a present loneliness; a troubled soul who finds meaning in life by recounting tales of Greek mythology to Girl Scouts and vagrants; a retired priest who is (literally) haunted by memories of a girl he once loved. The stories differ wildly in mood and genre: they may be raucous, sentimental, sexy, or spookybut they are all entertaining. Powell says, ';Perhaps you'll laugh; perhaps you'll cry; perhaps you'll think (but not too hardthat would not be the point). Enjoy!'
