Can one boy be guided by knowledge alone on a path of discovery?
The Memory of Trees is the story of Carlos, a shepherd boy, who travels from his beautiful home in Cyprus, following in the footsteps of Saint Paul into the Middle East and along the road to Damascus. Experiencing unbearable loss and exile, he sets out on a journey of knowledge and adventure.
This is a parable about listening to the voices in our hearts, seeking our truths, no matter how lost we are. It is about daring to allow ourselves to be guided along a path filled with pain, loss, love and passion and the inevitable choices we must all face.


Review


"[Rooney] fills your head with so much imagery that it's like coming up after submerging yourself in a pool or hot bath. You open your eyes and sound comes back to you as water leaves your ears. You do it slowly in order to indulge your senses." Shannon Yarbrough, author of Stealing Wishes "This is a beautiful tale, and is very well written." "I love the thought of putting memories about meaningful people who were once part of your life to the guardianship of certain trees ... A very comforting thought that I will take with me from the book for the rest of my life." "... a very thought-provoking read for me so I took my time with it." Goodreads reviews of this book
