Not Heaven, Somewhere Else

If heaven is somewhere, it isn't with us, but somewhere we want to get--a state, a place, a turning to home. Novel- and essayist Rebecca Brown's thirteenth book is narrative cycle that revamps old fairy tales, movies, and myths, as it leads the reader from darkness to light, from harshness to love, from where we are to where we might go. "These updated and revised fables satisfied a desire for moral discussion I didn't even know I had.... Highly recommended and highly rewarding." (Rich Smith, The Stranger)
