Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"The Wayside Cross" is a poignant exploration of life, faith, and tradition set against the backdrop of rural Quebec. This evocative narrative delves into the heart of French-Canadian culture, illustrating the deep-seated customs and the spiritual devotion that define its characters' lives. The story revolves around the symbolic wayside cross-a common sight in the Canadian countryside-which serves as a silent witness to the trials, joys, and moral dilemmas of a close-knit community.Through its rich portrayal of local manners and social interactions, the novel captures a unique historical moment where ancient traditions meet the encroaching pressures of the modern world. Mary E Waagen masterfully blends elements of romance and regional drama, offering readers a glimpse into the seasonal rhythms of the farm and the enduring strength of the human spirit. "The Wayside Cross" stands as a significant contribution to early 20th-century Canadian literature, providing a sensitive and detailed account of the cultural heritage and religious landscape that shaped the identity of the region.
