Their only clue a "Sara" signature, the unemployed graphic designer convinces the enchanting Korean-American curator to help him discover more images by this enigmatic artist. From Phrekka's world of privilege and mystical spiritualism to his of heartland farms and fundamentalist values, they'll cross the country in search of the meaning behind Sara's sketches, an odyssey to divine one extraordinary person's singular secret for touching people's souls.
But staggering revelations entangle them with issues of mortality and faith, sexuality and family violence, obligation and responsibility, deception and truth. Only by daring to look close at the dark and profane will they have any chance of coming together to create a legacy more beautiful than either ever imagined.
What Sara Saw paints exquisitely vivid portraits of two young people who must follow their hearts to recapture that innocent grace long lost to the whims of circumstance and fate.
