SOUL MISSION
Magical Realism / Religious Fantasy /
Literary Fiction / Historical Fiction
A mid-life crisis in the twenty-first century is hardly unique, but in Ephraim’s case, none other than Elijah the Prophet helps him to get through it—and in the process possibly save humanity.
According to Biblical and folkloric sources, Elijah occasionally descends to earth to help those in need or to impart lessons. Why Elijah visits some and not others, nobody knows. Certainly not Ephraim, who is a less-than-ideal father and husband, a stressed itinerant Spanish teacher, and a sufferer of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Reluctantly, Ephraim starts to believe in Elijah and other towering sages who show him that in order to overcome his problems, he must rectify wrongs from his past lives, which lead him to perilous and sometimes humorous events in history.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a story that includes run-in with Goliath, facing Spain’s Grand Inquisitor, working in a New York sweatshop, and forging a relationship with a distant cousin, Bess Meyerson, Miss America of 1945. Readers gain insights into some of history’s greatest episodes, told in new, bold ways and peppered with warmth and humor.
Watch for it to release in late 2024.
