An accessible and big-hearted novel that explores belief and forgiveness as a boy grapples with his faith and sexuality on a rollicking family road trip to Bible World
When Eli Harpo was four, he underwent emergency open-heart surgery, flatlined on the operating table, and for a brief time, went to heaven and met Jesus. Or at least that’s what his father, a loving but devout Baptist minister, has raised him to believe.
In Eli Harpo's Adventure to the Afterlife by Eric Schlich, explore the journey of Eli, a young boy who is navigating the complexities of his father's beliefs and the implications of his extraordinary childhood experience.
