| A divinely inspired bridge to a new level of self-awareness. Through both intimate detail and broad strokes, Obery Hendricks brings a village and its inhabitants to life. Hendricks has his characters speak in Southern black vernacular ("Why men treat women like that?... Sumpin wrong with women?"), which, while slightly distracting at first, is surprisingly effective. The slow-moving action and inspirational tone will turn off some readers, but those interested in biblical history will appreciate this inventive variation. |
