Interesting take. I'm intrigued. Please elaborate on how you take the overall narrative. I'm interested in your interaction with the specifics, especially a critique of my very positive take on the story. It does not appear to me that Emory "avoids" religious truth at all. (And I hope you won't tell us to wait for your printed review! How long would we have to wait?) BTW, loved your review of the Silk quartet.
