Seeking Lydia

by Christina Huvelle

Overview

Seeking Lydia is the intergenerational story of an American family. Lydia lives in a world where men make life decisions for her. She experiences the grief of loss, and in a crisis of faith attempts to claim for herself the freedom that her daughter-in-law, Josie, would instinctively choose for herself, and that her granddaughter, Beth, would take for granted in her own life.

Once she empowers herself to make her own choices, Lydia's actions destroy her family. Will she be able to find acceptance and forgiveness to bring the family back together again?
