'All the World' Summary
The novel opens with a town grappling with the aftermath of the Great War. Soldiers, returning home, find it difficult to reintegrate into civilian life. The women who stepped up to fill their roles during the conflict also face uncertainties. Dr. Ward, a compassionate minister, recognizes the town's struggles but lacks a solution. During a Sunday sermon, a pivotal event unfolds, setting in motion a chain reaction that alters the lives of many. This event, left unspecified in the summary, likely involves a profound spiritual awakening or a moral shift that forces the townspeople to confront their own values and priorities. The core of the story lies in the power of faith and the impact of a single act of faith on a struggling community. Individuals find solace and purpose in their beliefs, forging new paths forward, driven by a shared sense of hope and newfound purpose. As the novel progresses, we see the town revitalized, its spirit renewed, and its people embracing the promise of a better future, united by their shared experience and strengthened by their newfound faith.Book Details
