| General note |
A little girl who grew up in a parsonage in Florida begins to question her family’s beliefs soon after she reaches seven, the “age of reasoning”: “Now, how does that ‘Three in One’ thing work? If God was in Jesus while He was in Israel, who was looking after the people in Alaska and Africa?” And, “Since the Jews are so smart, how come they don’t see that Jesus is just as important as Moses? Do they know something I don’t know?” And, “Since God made it possible for humans of different colors to make babies together, how come the grown-ups don’t like that?” The story grows from her inability to get satisfactory answers to these and other questions, to her days in nurse’s training, to her marriage, her devastation over the civil rights issues in Huntsville, Alabama during the 1960s, the beginning and the “seat” of the new “space age”, to her investigation of various religious teachings until finally resolving those issues left over from childhood, to eventually moving to California with her husband and two sons to manage a Bahá’í school. And the people and events experienced while living in a “fish bowl” at the equivalent of a “church camp” for 17 years are both hair-raising and hilarious. The quote from Jesus on the back of the book, “And a little child shall lead them”--- to a rollicking mystery, sums it up; her angst is your laugh. |
