The Angel Carver — Rosanne Daryl Thomas

Published in hardcover to universal acclaim, here is a lyrical modern-day Pygmalion, a fable of delusion, redemption, and love. "What a strange and beautiful novel this is. . . . Thomas writes with a gentle precision of a master, her way with fantasy makes it real; her light touch with realism illuminates the fantasies that swirl through it."--Newsweek.
