“Conversations” (ISBN 1467910775), a novel by Richard L. Sanchez, is the fictional story of the author’s one-on-one exchanges with God, exchanges that reveal little in the way of universal truth but a lot about God’s sarcastic sense of humor.
Told in first-person form, the novel reveals the narrator’s wry and disillusioned take on religion, a perspective that allows him to ask God some really tough questions. As Ric seeks to do the responsible thing and uncover universal truth, God’s humorous and confusing answers keep him doubting his sanity. A one-of-a-kind verbal sparring match ensues, revealing that God is very different from what his agents here on Earth would have us believe.
“Most books about God don’t come from an honest perspective, without fear of heavenly repercussions, but my book does,” says Sanchez. “It turns out that God really does have a sense of humor and is also a bit of a prick.”
Satirical and irreverent, the conversation touches on a broad range of topics including God’s thoughts on Kurt Cobain, the Israel-Palestine issue and the relative importance of yard sales. Written to engage, entertain and provoke thought, the book is targeted at younger adult readers with a well-developed sense of humor.
