There are/were a few great writers in the world, and William Goyen is one of them. As I was reading this book, I felt that I was transported back 2,000 years living as a contemporary of Jesus. This is one of the few books that I have read where I dreaded when I would finish reading it. I just wanted it to go on and on and on. Whether you are Christian or not, this book is a beautiful gift to the world. Goyen, generally, is so unappreciated as a writer. But what a Master he is! Goyen and John Gardner are my two favorite authors of the 20th century. READ this book before you die!!!
