Snowtime

More about the book

Snowtime, set in the rolling hills of southern Ohio, follows a young minister Keith Newman and his beautiful but bitter wife Ada as they navigate the pleasures and pitfalls of a rural ministry in the 1960's. The novel is alive with the folksy humor and cunning of the people in the small, past-its-prime town of Haran. The old people in the old house on the old road leading out of town insinuate themselves into the young cleric's life as does a young gypsy girl. The novel is shocking, funny, poignant and, yes, redemptive.
