Through Our Own Wrong Eyes

Through Our Own Wrong Eyes takes readers back to the 1930s and introduces readers to a young and resilient woman whose fragile innocence and strength anchors a tumultuous marriage that shapes the course of her family’s history and future. —Tomi Alo, Independant Book Review

From Depression Era Colorado through the California aviation industrialization boom of WW2 to new beginnings in Arkansas, the story follows the tumultuous lives of two mismatched people as they struggle to see each other and the rapidly changing world as they really are, and not through the clouded lens of ego, abuse and domination.

Ultimately, this is a story of faithfulness when it is not warranted, courage when it is not expected and redemption through perseverance. It will not disappoint.

And obey. They hurriedly married and she did worship…and obey…for awhile. But then a tragic fire uprooted their world and, consequently, opened her mind. To books. To possibilities. And WW2 thrust her into the workplace where she did a man’s job. Riveter. On airplanes destined for war. And she changed. Could he? Adapted from her very real journals, this novel is their story.
