Commenting on a book that has caught the attention and hearts of many, Andrew Sullivan writes:  "...this extraordinary, luminescent, profound book shows us something wonderfully unexpected and deeply true.  These ideas of sin that we have are not really sin.  Or rather:  they are the symptoms of sin, not its essence.  And its essence is our withdrawl -- our willful withdrawl -- from God's love.  This book is about Hendra's slow, aching, hilarious but profound attempt to accept God's unconditional love for him.  And this truly difficult acceptance is a consequence of one other man's quiet listening and faith.  Of another's love."

The book is published by Random House, 2004.
