She finds solace when she meets and speaks with the ghosts of the people who inhabited The Land before their world changed. Finally, Kukuli meets someone from The Land, falls in love and has a child with him.

It is a wonderful gift to us all. It has stretched both my imagination and my sense of wonder at the broad and deep potential of us human beings. In our present times it touches many bases of concern and many potential sources of healing. The power of love, when it links us, helps us to cross the boundaries of difference and recognize the communalities of all life on the planet and the paths we can share coming together for the greater good. All this shines out brightly in this wonderful novel.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Maurice G.
