Where Love is, There God is Also is the story of Martin Avdeicth, a fine cobbler who works in a basement from which he has one window through which he is only able to see the feet and shoes of passersby. After making a habit of reading the Bible, Avseicth experiences a series of events of near-Biblical proportions. The book was adapted into a short opera by Czech composer Bohuslav Martinů as well as A Haitian Creole translation produced by Carrié Paultre.
