![]() ![]() Maybe it's the new awareness she has of her world or the colors and tastes she discovers or maybe it's because she can move things with her mind but she doesn't do it.

So I would recommend one of the author's earliest works, Gunnar's Daughter, as a more accessible introduction and masterful tale in its own right. However, the length and the language of Kristin Lavransdatter may be obstacles for some-I admit it was hard for me to get into at first. I especially loved the scenes of interaction with the Church, its priests and its saints. The characters do change and find redemption over the course of this epic, and their medieval, Scandinavian Christianity is a powerful influence. Her husband and sons, strong characters in the book, also allow their passions to rule them, with resulting consequences. Though the protagonist is a woman, her struggles with her will are universal. I'd add that my husband and several of his friends read this and loved it-it's not just a woman's book. I can't help but add a few comments and also recommend another fine, but much shorter, book by this little-known Christian author who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1928.

There President Obama initiated, and President Trump continued, a return to direct combat in Afghanistan, after previously, at the end of 2014, saying we were done with the war. One is a direct combat war against remnants or elements of the Islamic State that have popped up in eastern Afghanistan. There are actually two wars that we're fighting in Afghanistan, I'm not sure most Americans appreciate that.
