About this book
When Joshua moves to a small cabin on the edge of town, the local people are at first mystified, then confused by his presence. A quiet and simple man, Joshua appears to seek nothing for himself. He supports himself solely by carpentry and woodworking; and he charges very little for his services. Yet his work is exquisite. A statue of Moses he carves for a synagogue causes amazement and consternation. His carvings of the apostle Peter one for the towns' Episcopal church, another for a Pentecostal congregation surprise the pastors and members of both groups. Neither is what they expected. Both are haunting.
