Subject: Chapters 39-41

39 Music Room
~David Kendall helps Pat in the jail where he has been brutally treated. The act of humanity on the part of David always reminds me that in war there are still individuals, not just 'sides'. How did you feel about it?

40 Nothing Sacred
"Don't you dare say it Sylvie, don't you dare. Our men are coming home if we have to go break them out of whatever hellhole the British have dragged them off to."

"We'll glue together what we can and put the rest in the dustbin. Did the bastards leave any of the cleaning stuff?"

~Can you fathom it, really, this life that people lead in parts of the world that are at war? Can you even imagine the state of your mind and emotions having to live in this kind of terror all the time?

41 Traveller's Prayer
It struck her suddenly that one could die even when needed by husband, by children, by the very weft of the world around them.

~This wee little chapter has always held so much more for me than it would seem at first glance. It speaks of the powerlessness we have in regards to mortality. How did Pamela's moment of clarity, and then fear affect you? Do you allow yourself that kind of honesty to the reality we all face as travellers? And isn't the Celtic prayer for travellers just breathtaking?
