An absolutely beautiful story on many levels." -Lorna Johnston"I can't imagine anyone not remembering this book long after they've come to the last page." -Shelley Waldaias"Clements' book surprised me. I thought it was one thing, a typical jab at the Christian establishment, and it turned out to be something different, a jab at what it means to be human and to long for love, but to come up short, the kind of jab that makes us all start looking, and maybe finding, that love we had forgotten." -Joe Bunting
