Helen Baldwin, a Baptist preacher’s young wife, was raised in one of
the poorest regions of southern Appalachia. When her ambitious husband
is sent to plant a church in a bustling city in New Jersey, she is
expected to create a new life and identity for herself as a woman of
social grace and stature. Instead, she accepts a job at the local soup
kitchen where she finds a sense of place among the soup kitchen’s
homeless and working poor guests. Helen’s growing attraction to one
guest in particular, an enigmatic Vietnam veteran, sets the stage for
Helen’s struggle to discern between light and darkness – and leads her
to embark upon a journey that will force her to confront her own demons
from the past.
Incognito appearances in and around the
soup kitchen by St. Francis of Assisi (the narrator), St. Thérèse of
Lisieux, and other well-known friends of God, turn Saints in the City
into an entertaining and meaningful exploration of the idea that the
veil between Heaven and earth is thin indeed – and that we are called
to “be” what we all intrinsically are: modern saints, often formed in
tragic ways.
While it is at its heart a mystical and
romantic journey, Saints in the City is also a provocative parable
about the pitfalls of moral judgment, love as a powerful, binding force
between persons of all social classes and conditions, and the idea that
restoration is possible for all people, no matter what is the root of
their brokenness or shame.
