Where Or When

by Ralph Bland

Life is a constant struggle for Emily Hughes. Whether she's in a dither over the recent odd behavior of her eighty-nine year-old organ-playing mother or fretting over the fact her grown son is dallying with a woman at the health department or simply in a lather that her daughter is openly cavorting with the son of her worst enemy, there's always a new crisis calling for her attention. Add to the equation the recently-called minister of music at the Maxwell Street Baptist Church looks an awful lot like Paul Newman, and suddenly Emily finds herself beset with a hymnal full of rampaging hormones in her own right. And with Nashville, Tennessee, fast becoming a nesting ground for all manner of wickedness and sin, there's simply no time for a good Christian woman like her to get any rest at all.

Reviews

[Monte Lamb · Rating 4 out of 5]

The times and tribulations of a wide range of characters in Nashville, Tennessee. The strength of the book is in the characterizations. The pattern is similar to the author's other books which relate the thinking as well as words of all the characters. Most everyone can identify these characters as ones they have lived with or around their entire lives. This time, you get to get into their minds as well as to see their quirky actions.
