How did Lazarus cope after being raised from the dead? Did he simply return to his normal routines? Or during Jesus's triumphal entry into Jerusalem, what was the donkey thinking?

Produktbeschreibung
How did Lazarus cope after being raised from the dead? Did he simply return to his normal routines? Or during Jesus's triumphal entry into Jerusalem, what was the donkey thinking? If a stone had the gift of sentience, what witness would it have given to the woman caught in the act of adultery? These are but a few of the questions posed by the author in his collection of short stories, Loose Ends. Each story owes its origin to a passage from the New Testament. Following the Jewish tradition of midrash, author Brian d'Eon prayerfully looks into the motivations of the characters in these stories, trying to fill in gaps in the narrative and tie up ""loose ends."" Inspired by countless generations of midrash writers, d'Eon looks for ways to join piety and imagination together, searching for new meaning in stories whose long familiarity may have blunted their original impact.

Autorenporträt
Brian lives in the little Shangri-la of Nelson, British Columbia. Here the stars still shine brightly at night and the Milky Way is no stranger. Brian's writing has been forged largely in the fires of live theatre where, over the years, he has participated as an actor, writer and director. In recent years he has turned his attention mainly to fiction (often of the speculative variety). His novel Big Ledge, and his novellas Eta Carinae and Echoes are available from online distributors.
