Description: Italian lessons: Fresh out of college, Carter returns to Rhode Island and plans to go to Italy to pursue the woman of his dreams, but needs to learn Italian. An apparent mismatch between mentor and student soon blossoms into something deeper. Water, stone, heart: There are many questions to be answered in Andrew Stratton's life, about who he is and what he really wants. Maybe a short trip to the Cornwall region of England will provide the answers. It would at least be an escape from a failed marriage and sterile teaching career. Would it also be the beginning of a new life? An engaging tale of personal discovery.
