A FURNACE FULL OF GOD
A HOLY YEAR ON THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO
by Rebekah Scott
Now available on Amazon.
In a style reminiscent of A Year in Provence, this is a story of daily life in a Camino pueblo – winter pig-slaughtering, family feasts, singing the saints’ statues into the fields to bless the crops. Shepherds, carpenters, and truck drivers helped us, a couple from faraway lands, find our stride far from Pittsburgh and London. Here are the animals that gave “Peaceable Kingdom” its name, and the pilgrims who gave it purpose: broken-hearted Yuppies from the Bronx, sweet Swedish hippies, barefoot Philippine penitents, on the Road to the shrine of St. James. Everyone who stayed brought a story. But Holy Year is not just another “Merry Pilgrims on the Santiago Trail” book. Moratinos in 2010 was shadowed by sudden death. A series of accidents tore a hole torn in the community fabric.
But Moratinos is on the Camino de Santiago, and 2010 was a Holy Year – a time and place where redemption could be won by simply walking down the road.
Not a Peaceable Publishing project, but a great book translated for a great cause.
