I picked it up from the bookstore when I was in seminary. It bores the kids. They are too young to appreciate it but it is full of Canadian nostalgia. Young William has dreams which re-image the nativity in his contemporary Northern setting n the 1930s. These dreams provide different images of the Holy Family and those who welcome or reject them. ( ) "This magnificent retelling of the story - making universal the meaning of Christmas - is done as only a deeply religious artist like Kurelek can. Like the great Renaissance painters who renewed the Nativity by placing it in their native Italy, Kurelek sets it in his native country, and records it in 20 magnificent paintings." - dust jacket sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
