Brother Daniel's Good News Revival

IN THE EARLY SUMMER of 1933 an 18-year-old naive Kentucky farm boy Michael Boone becomes a driver for a traveling religious revival troupe. As the summer unfolds and the itinerant group moves from town to town he learns that things are not what they seem; primarily that the goal of the enterprise is making money not saving souls and that hardly anyone in the group fits into a neat and normal family narrative. Michael in turns is exposed to religious hypocrisy the world of good literature the destructiveness of alcohol abuse pedophilia overt racism first true loves near tragedy and selflessness. He is also skillfully tutored in the art of seduction and sex. The full impact of Michaels time with Brother Daniels Good News Revival is only learned many years after the summer of 33. It is a revelation that shakes the foundation of the life he had since built.
