Description:
Though educated as a painter, fifty-three-year-old Lee MacPhearson has lived her life coloring inside of the lines. The quintessential working mother of four, Lee has been the proper faculty wife (an ill-fitting role at best) while somehow managing to nurture her passion, Mad Dog Gallery, into one of the Pacific Northwest’s most notable galleries. The casualty in all of this: Lee’s marriage. She’s been left wondering what happened to the woman she once was. Having just delivered her last child to college, Lee is overwhelmed by her empty nest. But she’s also giddy—finally, the opportunity to decide what she alone wants. Her estranged husband Brian, however, knows exactly what he wants: Lee… and the life they once shared. With his apologies well rehearsed, he launches his campaign to reconcile before Lee steps foot into her newly empty farmhouse. But it’s Lee’s best friend of twenty years, Barb Yakamura, the brilliant and irreverent Artistic Director of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, who overflows with ideas about what Lee should do, including one that will lead Lee, Brian, and the entire MacPhearson family to an ending they never expected. “From deep within her heart and graced with style, Barnes Priestley engages us in a story of life, friendship, and love. Appreciating the importance of human connection, Barnes Priestley writes inspired prose with clarity, poise, humor, and an added dose of salt of the earth realism.” —Rosemary O’Neill, LMFT, Certified Life Coach “Duck Pond Epiphany is about things that matter. It is a story about both the lusciousness, and the despair, that accompany true love. Barnes Priestley writes a vibrant account of living life to the fullest, and the benefits and burdens of authentic relationships. I couldn’t put it down.” —Sheila Rocker Heppe, Director of Extended Education and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, Humboldt State University
