PEACETALK 101

By accaimed author Suzette Haden Elgin

The story of an ordinary man, who is so disgusted with the state of the world, so depressed at what he sees as a universal absence of hope for humankind, that he sees no way out except the most desperate of measures. But then things that are not at all ordinary start happening to him, as a stranger shows him, one small mysterious step at a time, that he has another choice. This novella in the form of a parable, leads the reader on an amazing journey from despair to joy.
