Wisdom Builds Her House, Wisdom Builds Her House

Wisdom Builds Her House is the true story of a woman who comes face-to-face with her past when she reads the journal of her husband's deceased daughter, a girl she never met. Curiosity leads to self- inquiry and haunting parallels between Carole and Gretchen: inexplicable disruptions from when they were five; mental illness episodes starting at sixteen; troubles in college; rejection in love-secrets hiding in their closets. While building a new house in the Blue Ridge Mountains with her husband, Carole reads the journals, which lead her to uncover the never-spoken truth about the violent crime from her childhood, all resulting in a crisis of faith.
