Unfathomable

Not all books are the same. An obvious obviousness, yet we come to our reads with expectations, expectations not always conscious. Most novels conform in some way to hose pre-formatted conceptions. But every now and we encounter those which exist other to such anticipations, rewarding us with participations not expected, which grace us with an ineffable, and well perhaps even unfathomable, More.

Unfathomable is such a read. On the surface, a simple story, but, the but is rewarding, and most enjoyable.

The most intriguing quality of Unfathomable is its Realness. All through my immersion I not only felt right there with the Laurence, deeply familiar with her story, not as a tale being told, but a memory I'm privileged to share. Throughout my participation, I consistently refused to let go of the conviction I'm hearing an actual real-life circumstance unfold as it happens. A most remarkable perception, one I still have.

I came to be Facebook friends with the author shortly my reading, which, through peculiar Force-of-Circumstance, I came to read slower than I ordinarily would, allowing ample time to become good friends. And amazingly, I'm assured there's nothing but imagination to the book. Fascinating, I can't shake my conviction of real, despite the assurances.

Wild ideas stick easily to wild people, like burs to woolly sheep, but there they tend to stay, stuck in the fluff. Sensible individuals are more circumspect when it comes to the unconventional, knowing the radial tends to be a waste of precious time. How then does the discerning author convey such realities? Gently, slowly, with care, and exquisite ease. Rose is indeed like the Moon is this friendly reflection of power. Indirectly, calmly, but nonetheless influential, much like the quiet power of our lunar muse.

We thus encounter the profound almost without realising it's significance. The comprehension is unfolded within our awareness and its extension of our world is accepted without strain. An excellent accomplishment and Gift-of-Conception.

“Go gently into the glowing of the light...” comes to mind. Unfathomable is a Journey where the Journey is the Joy, the joy of sharing a recognisable way-of-living and its value, its excellence without needing to be spectacular, unusual or unremoved from the realness we all possess. This is the excellent Gift of Unfathomable. We come to enjoy a life which we realise we too could live with a few shifts of perspective and modifications of sensibility.

From the outset, we know Unfathomable has an ending, even from the back cover inplication, but, as we read, we have no idea how. and when it comes, the delight is real, we're moved, we're left with a deep feeling of satisfaction, a state of Resolution not easy to achieve, yes Rose has accomplished this with Unfathomable, leaving us complete, yet still connected to that mystique of the More lingering deliciously as a dear companion returned from long absence.
