Cross Roads
Cross Roads | WM. Paul Young
9 posts | 17 read | 3 to read
Anthony Spencer is egotistical, proud of being a self-made business success at the peak of his game, even though the cost of winning was painfully high. A cerebral hemorrhage leaves Tony comatose in a hospital ICU. He 'awakens' to find himself in a surreal world, a 'living' landscape that mirrors dimensions of his earthly life, from the beautiful to the corrupt. It is here that he has vivid interactions with others he assumes are projections of his own subconscious, but whose directions he follows nonetheless with the possibility that they might lead to authenticity and perhaps, redemption. The adventure draws Tony into deep relational entanglements where he is able to 'see' through the literal eyes and experiences of others, but is "blind" to the consequences of hiding his personal agenda and loss that emerge to war against the processes of healing and trust. Will this unexpected coalescing of events cause Tony to examine his life and realize he built a house of cards on the poisoned grounds of a broken heart? Will he also have the courage to make a critical choice that can undo a major injustice he set in motion before falling into a coma?

While I question some of his theology, this was a good fable. I enjoyed his characters.

Ever feel like a book is stalking you? 😱Just happened to notice this book on the shelf at dollar tree of all places the other day. This book is actually referenced in the foreword of a different book I‘m currently reading. So of course I had to buy it. 😉#LatestBookishPurchase #JanInBooks18

#CrossRoads by #WilliamPaulYoung ended up being a great #Pick! The start was slow and difficult to get into; I kept finding myself comparing it to #TheShack and was a little uneven on the simialrities at first. I'd say about half way through the book it got really interesting - and had a great ending!

jess_turtlebeanz @Rachael5248 So true! It's going to be worth it; I'm so excited to start reading The First Phone Call from Heaven 7y
Myhometownandbeyond I'm only about 35-40 pages in now and so far so good, however it does have mixed reviews on goodreads. I'm going to make my own opinion. 📖 (edited) 7y
