The Wishing of the Well: Hope in Troubled Waters is a profound allegorical novel told through the eyes of an ancient artesian well—an unlikely narrator that witnesses the beauty, corruption, faith, and desperation of humanity.

Once a source of pure, life-giving water, the well becomes poisoned by a catastrophic event beyond human control. As a town faces ruin and science offers no solution, hope emerges from an unexpected place: a wandering sage who tells a mysterious ancient story—one that challenges reason, confronts pride, and reveals a deeper truth about purpose, free will, and redemption.

Blending philosophy, faith, and myth, this richly layered narrative explores the limits of human understanding and the enduring struggle between truth and deception. As skepticism clashes with belief, readers are invited to reflect on suffering, hope, and the possibility that restoration may come not through human effort, but through trust in something far greater.

The Wishing of the Well is a thought-provoking journey for readers who enjoy meaningful fiction that wrestles with eternal questions and offers light in times of darkness.
