Where the River Bends and Curls

Where the River Bends and Curls, is a powerful and emotional novel of a conflicted and somewhat reluctant Lutheran clergyman and his inner struggles amid recalling memories of his life - to understand his past, face self-truths and redirect his life, his love, and his career, when he needs to the most. This is a powerful story of an intense romance, which bridges cultural and religious boundaries and a story filled with raw emotion, but when you read much deeper, it is actually a story about what life's simple lessons can teach us.

This is a novel, which is very different from Mr. Hausleben's past work, yet, as is true with all of the author's work, it is genuine storytelling, deeply emotional and unforgettable.
