In The Desert of My Soul
Author(s):
John Glines
The setting is a shack in the desert, where a lone traveler, George, stops by hoping to get food. He is greeted by Yang, an elderly Chinese man, and then Ma, the owner of the establishment, and finally meets Josie, a young girl of uncertain background whom Ma has taken in. An intriguing aura of reality vs. unreality grows as the salty-tongued Ma, the philosophic Yang, and the two vulnerable young people probe into each other's lives, and draw ever closer together, as though creating a separate and protected cosmos in the vast desert wilderness. Then George and Josie, having found love, decide to leave--sure that this time life will be good to them, but also knowing that a place of refuge will remain open to them should the world beyond the "desert" prove too harsh.
