Review: CONVERGING by Thomas Flowers
I don't come lightly to anything by this author. I bring my mind, my imagination, and my soul, knowing all three will be stretched. Mr. Flowers has a degree in history (which he capably demonstrates), but his understanding of Character, both of individuals and of Place, is positively Faulknerian. Whether he's delving into Houston, or East Texas, the Delta of Mississippi, or a tiny, smug, Appalachian community, Mr. Flowers comprehends the Character of Place; and when he finishes with us, so do we. He also understands the nature of evil, and how easily it conceals itself from less-discerning eyes. Delve into CONVERGING, and prepare to come away Changed.
