Synopsis

From a leading authority on orality Mark Snowden comes CANMAR PASSING – a wild ride to bring hope to a people who have rejected literacy but need to hear and act on the Story that will save them from destruction. One of Jupiter’s moons has been knocked out of orbit. The destruction reveals humanoids are living under its surface. And they are headed directly toward Earth. An astronaut team tries to reach them. When they are trapped on Canmar, new Ambassadors, including Derek and Grace Seale, get on Canmar as it passes very near Earth. In fact, it's enough to create Scuff Zones. In order to be saved, Canmarians must bring personal escape pods we call Thumpers to the surface. They must learn that what once was considered an act of insanity is now where they must travel to jump to safety. The people of Canmar have rejected a literate way of thinking, so the Ambassadors must convey their Message of Hope in story form. The clock is ticking as United Nations Commandos begin their sinister work. Who will make it? This book includes discussion questions and a epilogue explaining the role of orality, especially in cross-cultural contexts. The book may be used in academic settings. It's not just about good vs. evil, but how communication can hit the target by using oral-preference communication. Canmar Passing is overtly Christian in nature and carries a missionary-type theme throughout. However, it ultimately relies upon starting a movement that will depend upon the faith of those who can hear and pass along the Story of Hope. © 2015 Mark Snowden
