Conquering the Crow Bert Bartz

It all starts with an odd dream-a "sweet dream," as the woman calls it when she awakes. The dream, full of tropical, sun-splashed locales and gentle elephants, made her feel happy when she left it. She takes it as a sign: she needs to change her life. She is too tired, frazzled, and anxious to truly enjoy life and the people around her.



This strange dream is just the start of a spiritual and physical journey that mixes the heartwarming with the hilarious. Along for the ride are her friends, all members of the Coincidences Club, which meets often to discuss the random occurrences and events they have experienced or heard about. The purpose? To determine whether these occurrences are "just" coincidences or something more. As the woman considers major life changes, including quitting her job and canceling her gym membership, their stories will inspire her and cause her to question the events happening around her.



Entwined in her story of self-affirmation and change are the stories of unbelievable coincidences. Readers will be forced to question whether they believe in a scientific or spiritual explanation for these extraordinary stories and what it means for their own lives.
