by Sandra T. Francis (Author)
Reader Responses: This is a wonderful, mesmerizing story of a woman's search for her deepest self. The characters are so real and believable and human that one forgets this is fiction. The author has extracted from her own life the beauty, compassion, and wisdom that fill the characters in this work. I highly recommend this novel to any of those who are seeking a better understanding of their lives and perhaps the purpose in those lives. This work is a little gem. -Locke Rush, Ph.D, psychotherapist and marriage counselor. The Crystal Staircase is a heart-centered exploration of a wounded healer and the beginnings of her journey toward wholeness. While deeply personal, the story is also accessible, with many "I have been there" and "YES" moments. -Rabbi Elyse Seidner-Joseph, M.D. I felt an immediate connection to the narrator of this story. Together we journeyed through the maze of time and experiences until we found the door leading to the crystal staircase, climbed to the top and joyfully said, Amen -Reverend Dr. Deborah Tanksley-Brown. The Crystal Staircase is about the spiritual journey toward healing and wholeness. It shows how we can heal ourselves by our contemplation (inner dialogue) and also by engaging others around us in graceful and loving ways. I think any woman reading this story will find a little bit of Eva Green inside herself. -Lisa Cannella, member of the Daughters of Abraham book club, Chester County, PA.
