The Harmony of Circumstance is a beautifully crafted, emotionally resonant novel that reveals the quiet depth of human experience through a constellation of voices.
From a boy navigating sensory overload to a mother confronting her past in an old farmhouse, from a young man scarred by war to a woman recalling her teenage summer under Southern skies-each chapter offers a vivid, self-contained story. But taken together, they form a powerful mosaic of love, loss, resilience, and the unexpected ways people's lives intersect.
With elegant prose and profound empathy, Kendra Thompson delves into themes of identity, neurodivergence, memory, trauma, and connection. Her characters are ordinary and extraordinary-people you pass on the street, people you might be. Their stories unfold quietly but leave a lasting echo.
Perfect for readers of literary fiction who appreciate introspective storytelling and deeply human moments, The Harmony of Circumstance invites you to find beauty in what's unsaid-and truth in what's shared.
