The book of strange new things : a novel / Michel Faber. by Faber, Michel, author. London ; New York : Hogarth, 2014. Subjects Man-woman relationships -- Fiction. ISBN:  055341884X 9780553418842 : Description:  500 pages ; 25 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "It begins with Peter, a devoted man of faith, as he is called to the mission of a lifetime, one that takes him galaxies away from his wife, Bea. Peter becomes immersed in the mysteries of an astonishing new environment, overseen by an enigmatic corporation known only as USIC. His work introduces him to a seemingly friendly native population struggling with a dangerous illness and hungry for Peter's teachings--his Bible is their "book of strange new things." But Peter is rattled when Bea's letters from home become increasingly desperate: typhoons and earthquakes are devastating whole countries, and governments are crumbling. Bea's faith, once the guiding light of their lives, begins to falter. Suddenly, a separation measured by an otherworldly distance, and defined both by one newly discovered world and another in a state of collapse, is threatened by an ever-widening gulf that is much less quantifiable. While Peter is reconciling the needs of his congregation with the desires of his strange employer, Bea is struggling for survival. Their trials lay bare a profound meditation on faith, love tested beyond endurance, and our responsibility to those closest to us" --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Fiction Faber Checked In Add Copy to MyList
