    An unrepentant heart is heavy. 
    Widowed, lonely and angry, Claire feels that God has turned a blind eye to her. When her daughter becomes pregnant she acts on her pride and vanity, forcing the teenage girl to get rid of the baby. This choice creates a wedge between mother and daughter - and further distances Claire from God.     
    Believing that she’s a hopeless cause and peace is unattainable, she willingly accepts her probable death when a car accident leaves her sinking in the murky Jim River waters.   
    Then the boy appears, taking her by the hand and leading her down a path of self-reflection and healing, in a world unlike anything she’s ever seen. Claire discovers the truth about the past, faces off with her pride and finds that God has been pursuing her through it all. Using even the most dire of situations to draw her closer to Him. 
    A hard-to-put-down, thought provoking novel about redemptive love and true forgiveness from a God who celebrates with us in times of joy and agonizes with us in times of difficulty. A God who seeks to restore to us what was lost or stolen and redeem us with His powerful grace. 
    What people are saying:  
    “Male or female, young or old, this story will move you.” 
    “If you’ve ever wrestled with forgiveness or grappled with faith, this book will gently guide you toward true peace.” 
    “An uplifting, amazing life message.”

    Set against the backdrop of Ireland’s struggle for freedom, "Cathleen Ní Houlihan" unfolds with quiet intensity as a young man’s ordinary life is gradually overtaken by a strange and irresistible call to something greater. In the presence of a beguiling visitor whose words seem to shimmer with myth and longing, dreams of marriage and home give way to visions of sacrifice and national pride. W.B. Yeats weaves a lyrical, otherworldly tale that blurs the line between reality and enchantment, capturing the powerful sway of idealism, identity, and the mysterious forces that drive people to give everything for a cause--the cause for Ireland's freedom. 
    Brimming with charm and mischief, "The Pot of Broth" is a delightful one-act comedy co-written with Lady Gregory in which a clever wanderer, armed with nothing but an empty pot and a silver tongue, convinces a wary country couple that he can brew a magical broth from a simple stone. As tall tales bubble up alongside the imaginary soup, the ordinary kitchen becomes a stage for trickery, laughter, and the quiet magic of believing in just a little more than what’s in front of you. Come into the Irish countryside, where even the poorest pot can cook up a most entertaining story. 
    W.B Yeats' "Purgatory" is a grim representation of generational guilt and spiritual entrapment, as a father confronts the ghosts of his family’s past in the ruins of a once-noble home, where memory and violence echo years afterwards. 
    Meanwhile, in "The Cat and the Moon," two beggars—one blind, one lame—make their way to a holy well where Saint Colman resides in the hopes of curing their respective ailments. But when given the opportunity of being healed or being blessed, both beggars are forced to reassess their convictions. Will they use their newfound gifts for justice, or will they accept placement in the hereafter?

    'The Hoarders resounds with a subtle and unsettling music which creates its own complex, multilingual logic, even as Leow brings an attentive eye and an inquisitive wit to bear on a wide range of themes both personal and political. These are vivid and evocative poems which bear re-reading, and Leow is clearly a talent to watch.' - Mary Jean Chan
