When the Time Comes

More about the book

Set in the tumultuous years leading up to World War II, the narrative follows a man whose act of defiance—throwing a crucifix over a waterfall—leads to dire consequences. As he finds himself in the trenches of war, he suffers a devastating injury that leaves him armless. His torment is captured in a haunting painting by a parish priest, depicting his suffering and blasphemy as he faces Satan amid the flames of Hell, symbolizing a profound exploration of faith, guilt, and redemption in a war-torn landscape.
