The other room  Cover Image Book Book

The other room / Borden Deal.

Deal, Borden, 1922- (author.).

Summary:

Here, a natural born storyteller captures the myth and meaning of a family who have lost their land in the Depression and reveals the unique and universal world of a boy struggling to reconcile the conflicts that block and baffle the Pilgrim's Progress of his life. For Christian Sword, love for a young girl is clouded by lust for an older woman, and faith in a benevolent God is shattered by a wrenching death. And a haunting memory of the other room- the viatl sanctuary he yearns for in his parents' house- becomes the mystery he cannot avoid as he seeks the path to a larger world." -- book cover
