I enjoyed Broken Pieces of God. The story was artfully narrated with the characters developing and their relationships with each other developing throughout. Twists turns and surprises were naturally revealed. Great read.This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. How the belief of one man can change the direction of/have an influence on everyone he encounters. Does his belief really change bad to good? Is he rewarded or punished because he demanded instead of asked for help? Shows there are two sides to everything and everyone. Some hidden better than others. Some more tragic than others. But all have an effect on everyone is some way. This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. In his novel, Broken Pieces of God, David Seaburn paints characters with exquisite pain and emotional depth. He taps into the spirit of our time. The brokenness his characters experience is shared by a statue of Christ the Consoler, that is a chipped and flawed image of the Christ who became one of us and experienced the same broken world. The story is a wonderful exploration of the crushing burden of holding onto hope in the midst of hopelessness.ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
