Story Behind The Book
In A Human Element, Laura Armstrong holds strong to the idealistic belief that we all have a redeemable human element inside us, no matter the evil we’ve done – or that has been done to us. She believes this about the antagonist and about the man she comes to love, who thinks he is not worthy of love due to his tainted past.
Do you think we are all redeemable? Or some of us are doomed?
Reviews
<p>A HUMAN ELEMENT is an elegant and haunting first novel.
Unrelenting, devious but full of heart. Highly recommended. -
