Prompt: GENERATIONAL

You will meet five generations of Keller women with the sixth on the way.

The Keller women had worked in the olive orchards for generations.

What a magnificent book with a powerful, thoughtful ending.

TODAY‘S PROMPT: FICTIONAL FAMILY

“Olives, Olive Oil, longevity.....sounds like it could be true to me. The Keller women had worked in the olive orchards for generations, and Anna, who was 112, claimed the longevity was because of the family's "love" of the olives....this book is filled with generations of women and family life.”
