Produktinformationen zu „The Portrait (ePub)“
The Portrait is a story about three people from different cultures, struggling to live through the social evolution of the 1960s. The lives of a Latino trapeze artist, a Black man survivor-of-the-streets, and the white daughter of a wealthy Bible publisher, were thrown together during the tumult and the violence of bigotry and racial hatred during the civil rights era. All these characters are attempting to visualize a brighter national future, an expectation of continued growth of wealth, and a consistent revelation of love and acceptance from others. The challenges in each of their lives are not unlike the soul-searching that each of us faces in our own daily struggle to remain true to ourselves and maintain a connection to the biblical commandment—"Love your neighbor as yourselves."
A challenge not easily embraced along with the admonition that all men are created equal. This is a story that has echoes and repercussions in our present day circumstances, as we struggle to bring truth, justice, and peace to our lives. This story is a repeat of the words from George Santayana: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
