"Otherworldly ghostwriters compose biographies for ordinary people in this playfully metafictional novel."
Foreword Clarion Reviews
Neverborn is a valuable resource for anyone dealing with loss and grief.
Did you ever have a period of time in your life when the whole world crashed in on you? Rachael, the principal character in this book had such a time; an entire year of tragic events piled one upon the other.
She finds strength and reassurance from the imagined voices of her never-born children. Her path leads her to write about relentless attacks on her spirit. Along the way she seeks solace from reading about others who have experienced similar loss.
Rachael’s family and friends join her on this exploratory journey. They consider the written works that influence her life. That intellectual exercise morphs into an emotional and spiritual adventure. Perhaps the imagined voices are real. She sets aside the conversations about pro-life and pro-choice and considers the moment of human formation as described in Jeremiah 1:5.
