Hurricane Helene constantly in the news now, with a steadily growing death toll, but even if a book is written, it won’t be as deeply researched as this.

And of course, this is a deeply personal story, about Moses. A hurricane isn’t responsible in any sense at all, but I hope there is a hell for Moses to suffer in for his sins.

I can’t think of another book that catalogs so much injustice at such an intimate level.

Wars, famines, natural disasters — they might harm more people than Moses did, but we don’t have a Caro to write about them.

OMG, so good but sooooo long.
I’m finally more than one-third done!
