Marilyn Brown

Serpent in Paradise Marilyn Brown

I can think of no LDS fiction writer (except for Orson Scott Card, in a different genre) who has more timelessly cultivated the invidious, possibly barren and reputedly mined no-man's land between "popular" and "literary" fiction than Marilyn Brown. In this new book, she invites us to ponder the entanglements of light and darkness, the tragic and sacramental risks and deeds, in our efforts to gather and live together, to make, sustain, and shelter families and communities. - Bruce W.
