Both my...Hi Elizabeth!<br /><br />Hope all is well with you!<br /><br />Both my husband and I read it and enjoyed it a lot. There are one or two instances in the book with profanity, but other than that the book is really good and pretty religious in nature. Since it was written for a secular audience, I don't think that your daughters will have problems with understanding the religious aspects of the book.<br /><br />HTH!<br /><br />EmmaMamaBirdEmmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953172914077823820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-5343709122737634642009-07-24T20:24:09.375-04:002009-07-24T20:24:09.375-04:00Hi Emma,

You never know with even some very good novels, so I'd love to hear your opinion.<br /><br />(I know this post is from March, but I just found it.)<br /><br />ElizabethMimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13429722263321739095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-32529379475631452632009-03-28T14:55:00.000-04:002009-03-28T14:55:00.000-04:00Or sympathetically.Or sympathetically.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645484704486562810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-59066675471928010262009-03-28T14:54:00.000-04:002009-03-28T14:54:00.000-04:00I very much agree - his other novels, while very ...I very much agree - his other novels, while very good, did not treat Orthodoxy as beautifully and searingly as this one did - it was a truly Orthodox novel, even though it was secular.<BR/><BR/>It is definitely on my keeper list, I can see reading it again.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645484704486562810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-72040902337570367482009-03-28T10:42:00.000-04:002009-03-28T10:42:00.000-04:00Thanks for your recommendation.
