A surrealist novel bearing witness to violence and hypocrisy in the Bible Belt. ELIJAH brilliantly retells the story of the prophet Elijah and the End of Days. Defies the standard "apocalyptic" novel, bringing about catastrophe from the souls of humanity and their misguided piety. Based on the prophet Elijah's biblical journey, this novel reimagines the prophet as a former child evangelist driven to suicide by his gradual fall from grace. Eli guides the living into the nightmarish world of the second coming, where famine and war spread like fire, and only in that fire can humanity be saved.
