“In the wake of WWII, a grieving fisherman submits a poem to a local newspaper: a rallying cry for hope, purpose . . . and rocks. Its message? Send me a rock for the person you lost, and I will build something life-giving. When the poem spreads farther than he ever intended, Robert Bliss’s humble words change the tide of a nation. Boxes of rocks inundate the harbor village on the coast of Maine, and he sets his callused hands to work.” The time frames of 1944 and 2001 are linked with the maxim: Life is big, God is bigger. This is an inspiring story of grief, honor, memory and love and one person’s journey to find the light in the world and fight for it.
