Book Review - ALONE by Golden Keyes Parsons
Golden Keyes Parsons had a deep caring for the hidden women in the Bible, the ones whose names aren't even mentioned, especially those whose lives Jesus touched. This one is a novella about the woman at the well in Sychar. Remember her? She'd had five husbands and the one she was living with was not her husband. Jesus told her he knew about that and much more. Astounded, she ran to tell the entire population--the same ones who pointed and snickered behind her back--that The Man of God was at the well.
But you already knew that much, that is, if you've read the fourth chapter of the Gospel of John. This story is the imagination of a consummate storyteller. It's not a romance, and yet that string hums in the background. It's not a mystery, although questions are resolved. This is a novel about a hidden woman whose life Jesus changed forever.
Available from Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. A positive review was not required.
