Arrington's elusive novel is a critique of southern small town politics but more, a challenge to the foundations of faith and its rhetoric and our failures to question.

A story of the American South in 1964 when two unlikely outcasts connect for a journey political volatile and (likely) surreal spiritualism. Written by a former mentor of mine!
