Memoirs of a Hillbilly Muslim Lit-By-Linda

What do cherry pies, happy chickens, and contented cats have to do with religion? Witty and clever, the author manages to bring her daily episodes into focus by viewing them through her unique understanding of the Universal Qur'an. Her stories are often comical, but she also finds meanings in tragic situations. Linda's unique journey to Islam is captured in her brief autobiography, and then she examines her rural life in a series of ninety-nine parables. Each parable begins with a Qur'anic passage followed by a personal story. Each parable merges into a thoughtful discourse that applies the Scripture to daily, modern living. Linda's word-sculpting incorporates wit, wisdom, science, and spirit. She excites the mind and stirs imagination. Her words inspire to dip into the bottomless well of divine water.
