description: Circle of Tears by Jeanne Marie Antoinette is a sensitive, well-written account of the author’s personal journey into the world of modern spiritualism. Opening with a riveting visitation she experienced by the deceased mother of Elian Gonzales one of the only survivors of an ill-fated escape from Cuba whose story made headlines around the world. Antoinette quickly sets the tone for a powerful and unsettling tale at once autobiographical and pedagogical in nature. Yet the heart of this surprising and deeply honest tale is comprised of a mother’s love, echoed in the words that Elian’s doomed mother used to recall her “Mostly I remember tears. Tears of happiness, sometimes of sadness, but always there were tears. Yes, a whole circle of tears.” Still, as Antoinette wisely reminds us, while there are tears there is also prayer, and prayer, she proclaims, can give rise to a faith big enough to fill “all seven bottomless seas.
