Keeper of the Hollow - Tapa blanda

Keeper of the Hollow (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Hicks, C.K. Ilustrador. Paperback. Steeped in Appalachian folklore, folk Christianity, and timeless questions of belonging, Keeper of the Hollow is a story about what we carry, what we bury, and what waits for us in the quiet place, patient as stone and wild as grace. Keeper of the Hollow is a haunting, lyrical tale set in the mist-veiled mountains of 1730s Appalachian North Carolina; a story of healing, memory, and the old magic that lingers in the land.Wren is sixteen, a midwife and herbalist who has inherited her mother's healing gift and her father's steadfast faith. Raised in a quiet hollow where the roots of the old ways still twist beneath the surface, she walks a delicate line between respect and suspicion. Her remedies are sought in times of need but the folk who seek her help also whisper behind closed doors. In a place where Scripture holds fast and anything outside it is feared, Wren lives with caution pressed into every step.When Thatcher, a soft-spoken young man burdened by the sins of his family, wanders into the hollow, something begins to stir-both in the hearts of those who live there and in the woods themselves. And something old, long buried, seems to be waking.As fear and unrest take root, Wren finds herself tasked with protecting the people she loves while embracing who she is. She must reckon with the power in her blood, the memory held by the land, and the cost of standing at the threshold between the seen and the unseen, between the old paths and the new.Keeper of the Hollow is a haunting, lyrical tale set in the mist-veiled mountains of 1730s Appalachian North Carolina; a story of healing, memory, and the old magic that lingers in the land.Wren is sixteen, a midwife and herbalist who has inherited her mother's healing gift and her father's steadfast faith.
