It is summertime in the late 1950's and you can practically feel the hot sand on your feet, hear the screen door slamming and taste the penny candy at the local ice cream parlor.But beyond this idyllic facade, life is changing for Sherry Waxman. Her friends' parents are divorcing right and left, her mother criticizes everything she does, and her grandfather is having a romantic liaison with a woman thirty years his junior. Sherry falls in and out of love as she struggles to understand everything from the meaning of life to her own awakening sexuality. With her parents preoccupied with their professions and their tennis tournaments, Sherry and her friends must fend for themselves.When Sherry's Aunt Geraldine arrives, the glamorous yet down-to-earth woman presents Sherry with a unique and special gift, showing her how to draw strength from the unseen world. Geraldine teaches Sherry and her friends how to empower themselves by connecting with their spirituality. As Sherry matures, she learns of her own intuitive gifts and how to use them to overcome obstacles and gain self-confidence.

<p>The rhythms of life are metered like poetry; unknowable and mysterious. Like a garden-always changing, often surprising. Chronicling a life filled with tumultuous joy and deep sorrow, celebrations of friends, and fondness for places, Holly Schwartztol leads us along her garden path where one turn may reveal the perfect bloom, while another twist highlights a dried husk.	She invokes brilliant images, personal notes, and vibrant personalities to take the reader into her universe-her garden-where the highs and lows of life are closely examined with a unique reality. You feel her emotions and suddenly you remember someone, a place, a moment, and realize that you, too, once had a reality almost like that. 	Holly makes a sharp point of contact in us, visualizing the garden path that we all must follow, acknowledging the rhythms of life that are part of the great discovery.</p>
