Contraportada

Praise for David Maine and The Preservationist

“Brilliant...Think Life of Pi thousands of years earlier with a much larger cast of characters.”---Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Part domestic drama, part supernatural thriller, Maine’s unsettling retelling of Noah and the ark feels as realistic and suspenseful...as any modern tale.”---TimeOut New York

“Envisions the events in Noe’s life with awe and realism, and with a voice that is clear, distinct, and (remarkably, under the circumstances) dry...An elegant, inventive book, and in no way a cynical one.”---The New York Times

“Smart, engaging...Maine gives readers a pertinent, wittily real, and unexpectedly moving portrait of simple faith, flawed humanity, familial infighting, and nagging doubt.”---O magazine

“We can reencounter the hoary Old Testament icon afresh as a sensual, fallible human being and really appreciate his greatness and his sacrifice.”---Time

“Maine’s writing is pithy and smart, and his characters have convincing voices, reverent and irreverent, humorously dry and compassionate.”---New York Post

“Outstanding...A treat both for believers and for those who consider themselves devout only when it comes to discovering good books...A great story, told remarkably well.”
---BookPage
