The Trial of Mr. Brown

By J J Roberts

Mr. Brown has just had a heart attack. When he wakes up, he is surrounded by ravens who tell him he is on trial to determine whether he is dead or not.

Comedy in the grand old style, The Trial of Mr. Brown asks the question, "What does it mean to truly be alive?" The characters are unforgettable, the setting is totally unique, and the plight of poor Mr. Brown is universally relatable. A thought-provoking entry into the world of Lady Raven, this is a stand-alone story that will leave you wondering if you too have been "walking about upstairs, dead as a doornail."

Blending Gothic atmosphere with razor-edged wit, The Trial of Mr. Brown is a haunting allegory of conscience, mortality, and grace. Fans of C.S. Lewis's The Great Divorce, Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, or Kafka's The Trial will find themselves at home in this shadowed courtroom-where even the dead must answer for the lives they've lived.
