Bless Me Father for I Have SinnedFour small town girls are about to have the time of their lives. Mary is fortunate, spiritual, beautiful, and naïve. Stephanie is strong, smart, gifted, and sure to get her way. Ronnie is bookish, sensitive, susceptible, and unlucky in love. Roxie is funny, tough, tender, has her own agenda, and lives life on her own terms. This is a bildungsroman about the interwoven lives of four childhood friends, from their Catholic girlhood in the sixties until today. The colored ribbons they tie on an old oak tree as a childhood ritual bind their lives together. Bonded by adversity through good times and bad, these four women give us a panoramic overview of the last half century and beyond. A sweeping coming of age story of psychological and moral growth, friendship, tragedy, endurance, and triumph, with a generous serving of feminine wit and wisdom, and a not so affectionate sendup of patriarchal institutions. As Stephanie, the leader of the Daisy Girls says, In this blend of joy, love, hate, tragedy, pain, sorrow, happiness, and triumph that is this beleaguered old world, we Daisy Girls are so lucky to have each other.An evocative look at a time that is lost forever, this is a story about four brilliant and beautiful women told through shifting points of view, an old fashioned saga, both heartbreaking and uplifting. It makes a great read before the fireplace with a bottle of wine and a box of Kleenex.About the Author: Kathy Buchen Beson has been a librarian for many years in the Fox Valley. She loves reading, long walks, bicycling, Motown music, horses, dogs, and writing.
