Pleasent light reading

I saw this book while on a religious retreat and started reading it. It was good, clean, interesting historically. There was nothing heavy-duty about it. It has since been passed onto others.

Beautifully written!

I found Unveiling to be a very beautifully written book. The characters, content, and plot were lyrically, sensitively, and subtly rendered. I look forward to reading more of her work!

A passionate and powerful novel especially recommended for readers of faith.

Written by English teacher Suzanne M. Wolfe, Unveiling is a Christian novel about a divorced woman working on an art restoration project. As she removes layers of grime from what may be a lost Flemish masterpiece of the Crucifixion, she gradually uncovers the misery that has been obscuring her soul - repressed emotion concerning not only her divorce, but also past sexual abuse and a forced abortion. The burdens of the past weigh upon her, but the dawning of faith and understanding help her in her search to restore what time, neglect, and harm have defiled, both externally and internally. A passionate and powerful novel especially recommended for readers of faith.

Must Read!

Well I have not yet got a chance to read her book, but I must say this. I know Ms. Wolfe as my professor at Seattle Pacific University. If her book has any of the fire and enthusiasm that she displays everyday in her lectures, than this book will be one hot read. Congratulations Professor Wolfe!

Unveiling

Ms. Wolfe is a very gifted writer. Her words and prhases are thoughtfully chosen although they have a spontaneous and conversational tone that similar to gifted syarn spinners sharing a freas tale with a group of close friends. The characters she develops are wonderfully human , yet strongly defined. I am impressed with the writer's ability to teach readers so much about the beauty and mystery of art along with the tecnicalites of restoraton while simultaneously drawing us into the persons and plot of the story. For me this is a story about a persons confrontation of her deepest yearnings for "the more" of that msystery that transforms existence into a life that thrives. A very enjoyable read. Thank you Ms. Wolfe. Keeep on writing for us.
