Teresa Sanchez, a direct descendent of St. Teresa of Avila, finds herself lost after her retirement...until the day
she begins to levitate
Teresa Sanchez always knew who she was. But when she reaches the age of sixty and retires from her
university position, her husband dies unexpectedly. Her son is grown and living across the country. Day after
day, she finds herself wandering in the garden of her home, lost.
Until the day she levitates.
Shocked but somehow not frightened by this new skill, she begins to quietly investigate the phenomenon. When
her aunt in Puerto Rico reminds her that they are said to be descended from St. Teresa of Avila, who was known
to have visions and, in fact, levitate, Teresa feels something click into place. She spontaneously decides to take
a trip to Avila, Spain, and dig deeper into St. Teresa's 16th-century life there.
Two women of shared blood, separated by five centuries but struggling side-by-side with identity and self-flagellation
(both literal and emotional), journey to understand that in finding themselves, they must accept that
there are things in life that cannot be explained.
