Mauna Kea: A Novel of Hawai‘i

Bag om Mauna Kea: A Novel of Hawai‘i

Mauna Kea-Anchorage in the Storm is a gripping tale of clashing passions—science and spirituality, vengeance and compassion, fear and courage—set atop Hawaiʻi’s 14,000-foot Mauna Kea, realm of revered goddesses and star-wise explorers. A young vagabond running from America’s turmoil is forced to confront his own grief and rage on an embattled holy mountain in the Pacific. There he encounters a mysterious domain of ancient mountain deities and the Native Hawaiians who revere them, including two wise elders who take him under their wings and a young woman with a world-weary heart akin to his own. Through his startling experiences with them—and a motley cadre of other islanders—he learns the power of aloha and discovers an untapped reservoir of faith and courage that rekindles his hope in himself and in the world we share.

Beskrivelse af Mauna Kea: A Novel of Hawai‘i

Mauna Kea-Anchorage in the Storm is a gripping tale of clashing
passions—science and spirituality, vengeance and compassion, fear and
courage—set atop Hawaiʻi’s 14,000-foot Mauna Kea, realm of revered goddesses
and star-wise explorers. A young vagabond running from America’s
turmoil is forced to confront his own grief and rage on an embattled holy
mountain in the Pacific. There he encounters a mysterious domain of ancient
mountain deities and the Native Hawaiians who revere them, including two wise
elders who take him under their wings and a young woman with a world-weary
heart akin to his own. Through his startling experiences with them—and a motley
cadre of other islanders—he learns the power of aloha and
discovers an untapped reservoir of faith and courage that rekindles his hope in
himself and in the world we share.
