Set in a small Ohio town in the 1890s, it chronicles -- through the voices of various participants and observers -- the confrontation between Brackett Omensetter, a man of preternatural goodness, and the Reverend Jethro Furber, a preacher crazed with a propensity for violent thoughts. This book meticulously brings to life a specific time and place as it illuminates timeless questions about life, love, good, and evil." -- Page 4 of cover. | ||
