My hope is to point them toward their Creator, offering comfort and understanding. I want to remind readers that everyday disappointments are a natural part of life, but we will get through them and be just fine.

Qu'ils donnent la parole aux opprimés réduits au silence ou ravivent le souvenir des peuples engloutis de l'histoire, qu'ils exaltent l'amour d'une mère ou la fraternité nécessaire, qu'ils évoquent les réfugiés en quête d'une impossible terre d'accueil ou les abominables convois de bois d'ébène des siècles passés, ils sont habités d'une ferveur païenne lumineuse, qui voudrait souffler le vent de l'espérance.
