Reviews

"Exquisitely detailed and intelligently written…A vast piece that strikingly reveals the human condition at the hour of its destruction."
Booklist
"Provoost minces no words when describing the terrified bewilderment of both human beings and animals at being left behind to drown in the deluge, and the single-mindedness of the Builder (Noah) inexorably driven to obey his tribal god…Reader Gavin's expert, semi-voiced narration keeps it lively. Her enunciation is clear, and her voice well pitched and appealing."
Kliatt
"Provoost's landscape is rich with description and drama. Marguerite Gavin's deep, resonant voice provides the right classical tone for an interpretation of a biblical event."
