About the Book    Planted in the Sky is the story of a present day Eve, uprooted from her own Eden, seeking new life and wholeness as she journeys from a San greal Community in Thunder Bay to a Benedictine monastery in Idaho, and then to a time of sabbatical in England.
   While studying writing and post-modernist fiction at the University of Sussex, Genevieve O´Connell travels through England´s cathedral towns, rediscovering the stories which lit up her childhood with the promise of nobility. The journey moves her from Arthur´s idealism to the passion of Guinevere, even as she tries to escape from the passionate encounter with God that astounded her at the monastery, and will not let her go.

About the Author       Anne Kathleen McLaughlin fell in love with stories as a child and recovered her passion for story in the eruption of her own mid-life spiritual awakening with women who are seeking to discover the pattern of the Divine woven into the tapestry of their everyday lives. Her work includes performing a one-woman play on the life and writings of the fourteenth-century English mystic Julian of Norwich, offering workshops on medieval and modern-day women mystics, and writing fiction and poetry. Her first novel, A Place Called Morning, was published in 2001 by Borealis Press. Anne Kathleen is a member of the Community of the Grey Sisters in Pembroke, Ontario, and holds a masters degree in religious Communication/Pastoral Studies from Loyola University in Chicago.
