An End of Speaking, Stories of the Bible by Zac Walsh
Take a postmodern mind with a believer’s heart ripped apart by doubt and travail, the skepticism of our times, and you have the ingredients for a fine collection of stories reimagining biblical figures and the grand topography of our ancient spiritual landscape. Zac Walsh is doing us all a spectacular favor—making it fresh, making it interesting, making it squirm on the cross, our inherited Christian mindset rooted in the bible. But more importantly, he’s just a damn good storyteller. You’ll love these tales lifted from the Bible and made new and relevant. —Stephen D. Gutierrez, American Book Award winner, author of The Mexican Man in His Backyard, Stories & Essays An End of Speaking, the first book of short stories out by Zac Walsh, is nine separate biblical retellings—or more accurately, first tellings—of stories where the Bible leaves off. What did Moses think when Yahweh left him outside the promise? What happened to Cain in Nod? How hard was it to be in Jesus’ head? And six others.
