Job Sanstrum sees sound in colour; the hum of the vacuum cleaner creates a soothing glass egg in his hands, the resonant ring of a wet finger run around a wine glass generates hues of merging pastel... This description may be from another edition of this product.
When people asked me what this book was about, I had a hard time describing it. "About nothing too interesting...well, about this guy who's really religious, and stuff happens...I don't know" But the weird part is that I absolutely loved it and couldn't put it down. The author had me hooked right away. It's the way she writes...brings you right there.
Took me home...

I just love this author. Her descriptions take me home, back to childhood, back to western Canada. Okay, I didn't identify much with the religious fanaticism of some of the characters in this one, but that wasn't all there was to them. I devoured this book and now wish I could fly back to Canada and dig the other two books I have by her out of my boxes in storage. If you liked her other books, this one won't disappoint.
