Six-year-old Henry is a neglected child growing up in an Atlantic City hotel and casino. Obsessed with the ancient Gnostics, he imagines himself a saint in fifth-century Byzantium. The contrast between Henry's spiritual idealism and the tawdry reality of his world makes reading this very original novel a moving experience.
This has been in my TBR way to long so I'm sending it on its merry little way to midwinter in Tucson, AZ to add to her local OBCZ.
Will be released at the Wilde soon!
