Présentation de l'éditeur
In this brilliant debut novel, Noe's family - his wife, sons and daughters-in-law - tell what it's like to live with a man touched by God, while struggling against events that cannot be controlled or explained.
For when Noe orders his sons to build an ark, he can't tell them where the wood will come from, just that God will provide. When he sends his daughter-in-law out to gather the animals, he can offer no directions, money, or protection. Just faith. But once the rain starts, they all come to realise that the harshest test of their faith is just beginning.
The novel is a wickedly funny, wildly imaginative retelling of one of the most dramatic stories known to mankind. At its core it's about a family caught in the midst of an extraordinary event. David Maine infuses this timeless tale with humanity, tension and wit.
Revue de presse
Sly, thoughtful look at the Bible. A beautifully paced novel. (Daily Telegraph)
A playful interpretation of the Biblical legend. David Maine has crafted a very funny, surprisingly modern novel which is as worshipful as it is modern. (Observer)
A witty, original novel. Maine adds his own unique comic twist to events. (Herald)
Maine's novel is a vibrant retelling of the Ark story, its comedy coming from the application of 21st-century concerns to a Biblical setting. (Sunday Times) --Daily Telegraph

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In The Flood, Noe's family tell what it's like to live with a man touched by the hand of God, while struggling against events they cannot control or explain. When Noe orders his sons to build an ark, he can't tell them where the wood or other materials will come from, just that God will provide. When Noe orders his daughters-in-law to gather the animals, they set off on their difficult journeys with no specifics, no money, and no protection, just Noe's faith that God will make it work. And once the rain starts, the family is trapped on the ark with no experience in feeding or caring for the animals, and no idea when the endless waters will recede. What emerges is a picture of a real family caught in the midst of an extraordinary Biblical event - and all the tension, humanity, and even humour that that implies. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR003154358
