Fearless by Rafael Yglesias

By

Max and Carla. They are both native New Yorkers: he hails from the Upper West Side; she is strictly Little Italy. They do not know each other and they have not a thing in common, other than the fact that they have both boarded the same DC-10.Soon, fate will change that in the most tragic fashion imaginable. The rear engine of their plane will explode in midflight, plunging it to the ground in flames. Max and Carla will be among the few to live. But survival is a burden that both will bear heavily.Max had always been alert to - and afraid of - the possibility of death. Yet in the face of utter catastrophe, he meets death's challenge with heroic strength - saving other lives besides his own. Victory over death, however, will plunge him into a struggle with life - fought on the battlefield of his psyche. Tormented by doubt, he will reevaluate personal relationships, confronting present trauma, past angst...and his own limitations.For Carla, Catholicism had always provided refuge and order. Hers had been the most basic of beliefs: pure, old-fashioned, and trusting. Then she loses the person she holds dearest, and learns that there are no miracles, no resurrections of the dead. Ravaged by guilt, her heart remains frozen in mourning; haunted by loss, her soul is dying.Max and Carla. The only thing they have in common is the gift of life...a gift both question and spurn. Now fate will bring them together, so they can teach each other how to live again.
