Our newest release is Rebecca Bradley’s The Lateral Truth: An Apostate’s Bible Stories. She is the author of the Gil Trilogy and numerous short stories, has worked as an archaeologist and teacher and lives in Calgary.
Was Moses really such a great liberator? How did a thug as thick as Samson get to be a hero? Wasn’t the miracle at Bethesda about as merciful as pulling wings off flies? The fifteen stories in The Lateral Truth follow selected biblical themes through to their illogical conclusions, building on questions the author was never brave enough to ask in Sunday school.
Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Rollback says:
Rebecca Bradley is a fabulous writer, and The Lateral Truth is a witty and clever skewering of Bible stories. Funny and fresh—a much-needed antidote to rampant fundamentalism. Enjoy!
Ronald Wright, author of A Short History of Progress thinks that:
With skill, wit and a keen nose for a good story, Rebecca Bradley reminds us that sacred cows must never be milked too seriously.
