Sahara's Gift is a book about faith and strength. It is very symbolic and tells the story of a Christian woman who, after being ridiculed, by other less pious women, asked God for a gift. She is not concerned with how she gets this gift - only the gift. When she does receive the gift, her church sisters begin a witch hunt and she proves her strength by remaining silent and leaving everything to God. In the end, she withstands her critics and she confirms what she already knew - who her true friends are. The book is at the same time both verisimilitude and irony. It teaches many lessons about human nature but the ultimate lesson is that God listens and responds to prayer so be careful what you ask for: you might just get it! Though the setting is Jamaica, there are universal truths and applications in this very simplistic novella.
