The Engine Series
THE ENGINE IN THE SOIL
a night book of the unseen turning
William Vincent Carleton
Lúmine fills the frame with soil, plants her seeds not too deep and not too shallow, and leaves them. For days the surface looks the same, while underneath a root goes down and a shoot goes up. When the first green appears, the children kneel and say nothing at all. A quiet Engine Series story about the work that continues out of sight.
Coming soon to Kindle
