The Other Hand

Description

From Chapter 1

November 17, 1989

Dear Cardinal Lustiger, Your Eminence:

My name is Daniella Stonebrook Blue. I am—or was—by profession an astronomer. We are strangers to each other. Your name was given to me by a woman on a bus as we were travelling across New Mexico. Because of her insistence, I am writing to you about this dark period of my life. I need to speak to you about the matter of light.

Light is the alphabet of God. I knew this when I was born and then I forgot. This is the first time I have understood it as an adult woman. Even as I prepared to write these words, I didn't know what they implied until they appeared on the page.

The Other Hand by Deena Metzger captures the journey of an astronomer seeking understanding and connection in a world filled with both darkness and enlightenment. This compelling narrative invites readers to explore the profound intersections of science, faith, and the human experience.
