In the Time of Lilacs and other short stories.This book is the second volume in the Christmas Carol Kauffman short stories series. It joins the other four Volumes: Comin Home Soon Vol 1, Up Sumac Lane Vol 3, According to His Purpose no. 5 and Before the Fall no, 4

After reading just one of her stories, the reader is captured by her simple yet powerful prosaic style. It seems as if Carol had the gift to craft words at the first passing... as they flowed from her mind to the pencil. Rarely did she edit or alter these stories but just wrote as the words came. It was as if the words came from elsewhere and she was but the earthbound conduit of heaven's dew distilling upon her fertile and innocent mind.
