Book Review: The Book of Jonas by Stephen Dau

June 22, 2012 by Allie

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While I didn’t necessarily agree with the actions or beliefs of the main characters, I was fascinated and empathetic. The sparse prose and short chapters meant no word was wasted and the story moved quickly between past and present and various points of view. I was profoundly moved by this engrossing book that packed a powerful punch in nearly poetic fashion.

Now available in paperback [simpleazon-link asin=”0452298970″ locale=”us”]The Book of Jonas: A Novel[/simpleazon-link] via Penguin Books
