Effortlessly combining outlandish humor with big questions about mortality, ethics, and human weakness, Ron Currie, Jr., holds a funhouse mirror to our present-day world. God has inhabited the mortal body of a young Dinka woman in the Sudan. When she is killed in the Darfur desert, he dies along with her, and word of his death soon begins to spread. Faced with the hard proof that there is no supreme being in charge, the world is irrevocably transformed, yet remains oddly recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRon Currie\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the forethcoming \u003ci\u003eThe One-Eyed Man\u003c\/i\u003e and the novels \u003ci\u003eEverything Matters!\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFlimsy Little Plastic Miracles \u003c\/i\u003eand the short story collection \u003ci\u003eGod Is Dead\u003c\/i\u003e, which was the winner of the New York Public Library's Young Lions Award.
