About this listen
Kali is a single mom raising her son Remy and her baby girl George. Originally from NorCal, she finds herself living in Nashville while pursuing a law degree at Vanderbilt. Kali is widowed, far from home and she wrestles with demons from the past. Kali sacrifices often, to put her children first, yet she will never truly know what is in their hearts. Because the parenting journey is never linear or predictable, especially as young children grow up and begin to individuate.
That force of Nature can come on like wildfire. Remy is the catalyst for the rest of this gender bending, time warp of a tale. When a tall dark man from Alaska comes into Kali’s life, she risks a second chance. Cyrus does not let her down. This blended family lives in a slightly fictionalized version of today’s America: there are two consecutive terms of a Trump administration, which fundamentally shift culture and change laws in ways the founding fathers never dreamed, with no going back.
But there is still beauty in the lives of these Americans, kindness between strangers, even mutual understanding and respect. What one beating heart can do for another. The power of good intention from a kind and caring neighbor. Plays of Light shows us where true beauty lies.
This book depicts scenes of sexual violence and self-harm. Audience discretion is advised. These pivotal events, both tender and traumatic, form part of the broken road that brings these four Souls together to their safe place, as each of them so genuinely deserves. Finding hope amidst trying times, Plays of Light reminds us of the importance of making human connection as our own authentic selves. To be heard, to be loved and to belong is what these characters desire most - as we all do - no matter the country we live in, or where our allegiances lie.
Because we are the real countries.
In this story, unconditional love is stronger than end of life, and unqualified devotion is the passport to reconnect when a Soul has departed.
