Meer over het boek

Brightness Springs is a fantastic parable of the Bright People and the Sleepers. Two groups who encounter each other on a different world and what happens when such different types of humans meet. Pete Smith and his companions, explorers earching for a new Earth, think they've found it when they discover the planet Brightness; only to learn that this new and wonderful world has humans on it - strange, marvelous people with a mysterious God and "powers of prayer". Curious events and odd disappearances lead Pete and the others to believe that the Bright People, for all their hospitality and kindness, may be hiding something vital and momentous from them; something supernatural and astonishing when at last revealed. Brightness Springs is a gracious tale of wonder and transformation as if C.S. Lweis and Robert Frost met to compose a modern parable of joy, happiness, love, and compassion in an ever expanding universe of the marvelous, fantastic, srene, and sacred. A story for all ages - spiritual, poetic, and intriguing.
