Indian Summer of The Heart- Daisy Newman "When Oliver Otis, a seventy-eight-year-old widower, fell in love, the realization shook him to the core. What was he to do about it? The daily silences of his Quaker faith, which usually brought him insight, failed to enlighten him now. He longed to unburden his heart.
