Book Overview
As a woman lies unconscious in a hospital bed, her husband waits beside her, urging her to wake up and come home. Between them lies an ocean of fear and the tenuous grip of memories long past. . . . Madison Foster knew she was going blind, but she didn't want pity. Paul Tilden knew a good thing when he saw it. With the music of the seventies as their soundtrack, Maddie and Paul were drawn together and driven apart. Then one night changed everything . . . forever.

Amazing !

What an amazing story of love and hope that kept me reading into the late night hours ... and when I finished the book, I immediately wanted to start reading the book again... that's how much I enjoyed it. This is the first book I've read of Marlo Schalesky. I recommend this book highly - a must read ! Definately 5 stars !
Engaging Novel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, yet that was what first attracted me to this work. What's not to love? But on the inside, Marlo's novel "Beyond the Night" was a deeply engaging novel, cover to cover. She believably placed her characters in the 70's and took us through their struggles, motivating self-evaluation in the reader as well as thankfulness. Her story captures the essence of love without fear. More than all that, I left her novel hungry for time alone with my Savior. Great work, Marlo! Thank you.
Wonderful and memorable. This story sticks with you.

Beyond the Night is an amazing love story that will make your heart sing. In some ways it had that sad/beautiful feel of yearning hope and unrequited love...sort of like the mood of Sparks's novel The Notebook, except this story wasn't rated R. They beauty of the author's writing style filled me with awe, and the way she used dialogue and internal thoughts to convey deep emotion took my breath away. The interaction between Maddie and Paul was so beautiful it made you long for them to realize what they had. At times I wanted to climb through the pages and tell them to wake up and do something about the way they felt. It was awesome...and holy. The spiritual journey was necessary and real, and didn't have a contrived element sometimes found in books where characters are angry at God for some loss they'd experienced. Everything flowed naturally. Even the scriptures. Beyond the Night is also a fabulous illustration of the necessity of God's perfect timing. It shows how God knows our needs and understands our pain even when we don't. It brings to mine a pop song that goes... 'You can't hurry love, no, you just have to wait...' You can't read this story without feel changed by story's end. I highly recommend it.
A wonderful reading group pick!

Marlo Schalesky's "Beyond the Night" beautifully tells the story of Maddie and Paul. Beginning with an automobile accident, the author weaves the characters' pasts with their present to bring the reader to several spiritual revelations. Some of these truths include the fact that righteous lives are not free of trouble, looking for God when you can't easily see Him makes Him more evident in painful circumstances. Schalesky effectively shares how much Jesus loves us, and brings to light how we can love others well. This is a thoughtfully written novel that really made me think about how and why God has answered my prayers as He has. The characters' circumstances made me grateful for my own position in life. It showed me that fear is a thief that will rob me of life if I allow it to do so. The book also contains a thought-provoking list of discussion questions. This would be a wonderful reading group pick!
