Wheels of the World (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Thanks to a near-death experience, Jamie Smith can commute between earth and the heavens, where souls swim, ideas grow and improbable dollops of joy fall through the sky. Jamie and his scary colleague Keziah have been recruited into an eccentric organization that tries to fix broken souls and change the course of history. Which is fine, except Jamie isn't too sure about the health of his own soul-and definitely doesn't want to find out. He'd rather be working for The Department, the heavenly bureaucracy that plans the future universe and offers a 30-hour working week, enviable employee benefits, and a tennis-skirted line manager named Anna-Natasha. As Jamie dithers, problems mount, dark forces close in, and time runs out. He's left with a decision: if he's fleeing from himself, which way should he run? The Wheels of the World is a comedy about how we change on the inside. Glenn Myers' comic writing has won national and international prizes and been broadcast on the BBC.

Autor

Glenn Myers has been a writer and editor all his life. Brought up in West Yorkshire, he has lived in Los Angeles, Singapore, London and Cote d'Ivoire, but has settled with his wife in Cambridge, UK.

As a journalist Glenn travelled widely to write a series of 11 books about the church in minority settings around the world. These books sold widely and were translated into many languages. Since turning to comic fiction, he writes about the invisible worlds that we all live in--much more exotic than mere reality.

He was in a coma for four weeks in 2013, but assumes he's stopped hallucinating now.

Glenn has also written non-fiction exploring the spaces between doubt and faith, and he blogs at slowmission.com.

They have two grown-up children. He and his wife are members of their local Anglican church. He enjoys cafes, board games and his hammock, though not all at the same time.
