I want to thank the readers and friends who support RESURGAM and post comments on their facebook pages! The book/story is gaining awareness due to reader support on facebook.
Just want to note once more - the first edition is a preview copy and a short run. It's not available in bookstores or Amazon. If you're interested in buying a book ($20 includes shipping), please contact me.
Reader comment/support from facebook:
All book lovers will probably agree that there are times when a very special book falls into their lives and they are impelled to do a little proclaiming about it. I want everyone I care about to read Resurgam: Standing on the Ground of Remembrance by Jean A Niedert. It came to me as gift at the beginning of 2009. It is the book that stirred me most deeply last year. Resurgam is Latin for “I shall rise again.” As the author writes in her forward, “Resurgam is a promise that out of the ashes grows new life. It is the mysterious transformation that delivers love and new life when one remembers and responds.”
Learning that the traveling replica of the Washington DC Vietnam Veterans Memorial was on exhibit nearby Jean decided to visit one day. Having read her story I believe that what happened to her that day at the Memorial borders on a mystical experience and a vocation call. As she gazes upon the countless names, all unknown to her, she hears a voice welling up in her depths, “Remember them..” The poignant story of how she remembers them actually becomes her pilgrimage. It is a pilgrimage on which she is still traveling for her characters have now become such a part of her life she is still listening to them…do visit her facebook page.
