Description:A journey often begins without foreknowledge and leads to places unimagined. It is the fall of 1999, and poised at the edge of the new millennium stands an introverted girl, one who might have found an earlier century a better fit. College junior Annie Healey is bright, opinionated and decidedly old-fashioned in all ways but one: religion. An avowed athiest, Annie thinks religious faith is obsolete. As part of an assignment for her Comparative Religion class, Annie attends services at a local Orthodox church. There she meets Anna, an elderly Russian woman, and is mysteriously compelled to seek her company. From their very first encounter, Annie suspects there is something extraordinary about Anna and is determined to discover what it is. Led backward into the history of Anna's life, and pushed forward by pressing conflicts in her own, Annie is propelled along the path of discovery and transformation, in part by a revealing icon of the Mother of God. In the process of finding out the moving truth about the old woman, Annie surprisingly discovers the truth about herself.Unexpected Joy takes you on a journey you won't want to end.
