Summary

Pack your bags to travel light and come along down a mystery road, where an impulsive detour south begins a spiritual journey for a boy on the run from God and the Devil, who comes face-to-face with them both. Follow a late spring storm across a Gothic American dreamland where the rain falls dry like dust, the highways whisper and moan, and the ghosts of Elvis and Jesus haunt the South like twin dead kings.

Different

This was a book I decided to try because I’d shared a tweet exchange with the author and the title and synopsis intrigued me.

It was different in “voice” to anything I’ve read and disturbing subjects were sketched as an idea without detail but enough detail to let me know the horror and gentle enough to be like butterfly wings, but strong enough to make my mind come back to feel empathy and question if I was more like the hypocrites or the those who truly lived their beliefs.

Even the deaths of characters I’d learned to love were treated with gentleness that means I will try not to hate the author for breaking my heart.

Thank you for a book that’s touched my heart, mind, and soul.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
