When she decides to spend a year at the house of her favorite relative, Great-Aunt Honey, she lands more than job opportunities in the San Joaquin farm community. She meets Gordon Flint, a corporate farmer who treats his workers like family. His stubborn integrity and the deep longing for her in his eyes makes him the sexiest man she has ever met. When their courtship becomes known around the valley a woman rejected by Flint uses her power and her money to unleash vengeful acts and threats against them while giving them no way to fight back.

Into a generic version of our post-war world, a visitor from another time dimension arrives and befriends a midddle-aged woman. The story evolves around the development of their friendship and how that impacts on their different concerns. Eva Voytek Pfaufeder was born in 1923, in Vienna, and this novella, written in her nineties, has emerged out of eight decades of an extraordinary life. Influenced by, among other things, Voltaire's 'Candide', the writing has a distinctive style and refuses to conform to any particular genre.
Joanne Bourne has been in awe of flint as long as she can remember.It was all around her where she grew up in Kent: used for garden walls, to edge drives and weight dustbin lids, as well as to build pubs, churches, Roman villas and castles. For centuries it was the only building stone available.It is also magical. Made from the remains of plankton and sea sponges, it is second only in hardness to a diamond and can be used to make fire. Part of human development for three million years, it was used as a weapon to hunt and in war, and hung as protection against thunderbolts and fairies.In a deeply personal love letter to this extraordinary 'biogenic' rock, Bourne traces its geological, architectural and social history and invites us to roam with her in search of it on her beloved North Downs.Fusing science, poetry, history and a profound love of landscape, this is her heartfelt, thoroughly persuasive tribute to the stone she calls 'an art project of the great divine'.
