First, you writing is beautiful, the concept intriguing. But having pitched, queried, and been rejected, I've learned the hard way that you need a one sentence "hook" then get to the meat of the story. Boring, I know, but that's what agents seem to want. Elana Johnson has a book on querying on-line. It's great. Good luck.Karen Baldwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01522178275164058849noreply@blogger.com
