What would you change?
So I guess i wanted wanted to ask those who have read the book if there are narratives they didn't like or felt out of place. If yes, how would you have rather written it?

I agree. Despite knowing that the author's narrative was not fact, it seemed to fit nicely within the context.Katie Canedy wrote: ↑01 Jun 2020, 17:28 I didn't find anything out of place, personally. I feel that the author's viewpoint and ideas fit well with the rest of the book. He uses the Bible's stories as well as his own viewpoint and was able to blend the two together well.

I would prefer the author to make sure from the start that the reader knows if the author is writing a serious book or if he is adding comments like the above to add humor.

I strongly agree with you.spencermack wrote: ↑01 Jun 2020, 23:29 It's a work of fiction so different readers will carry different understandings. Every book can confirm biases or help people change. Depends on the person.

Haha. True, we already do this, we already fill it in our minds, wondering how and why characters reacted that way.writestuff wrote: ↑01 Jun 2020, 23:27 I liked that I had to stop and think every so often. The concepts are plausible and pretty much what we do anyway. We accept the translation as correct and fill in what we don't understand as we ourselves read The Bible. Who knows what we could learn from the complete version.

I understand this, although one may say its the elaborate nature that makes the story fill up the way it doesdaphne_asir wrote: ↑02 Jun 2020, 02:08 I would have preferred it if the book was a bit more concise. I found it to be needlessly elaborate.
