This book leaves you with a desire to embrace people, opening your heart and spirit to all people in all walks of life.
Darci Beriman was more than just another poor girl in Brooklyn. When Darci came across a mysterious photo of her father with a strange woman in the forbidden bureau in her grandfather's basement, she knew she had to find out who she really was. Thus begins an odyssey that would take Darci across the globe, then home again. Along her quest Darci would meet a young couple on the plane to greece, the black African student who became her first lover, an enigmatic and wise Ere Zeta. Each encounter with these and others would shape her thinking and awaken Darci to the power of her indomitable spirit while learning lessons in the school of life. Susan Tabin's debut novel, The River Beneath The River is populated with memorable characters, sequenced with geographic and emotional adventure, and culminates into a thoroughly satisfying and rather unexpected conclusion. Highly recommended reading!
