From that ethnography and from lifelong observation, she crafts stories that lay open the human heart and social complications of fundamentalist Christian belief. These stories and the compelling characters who inhabit them pull us into the complicated, variable core of religious experience among southern American Christians. Jesus in America, a perceptive work rich with cultural insight, is a singular addition to the growing genre of ethnographic fiction. 606 $aProtestants$zNorth Carolina$vFiction 606 $aEthnology$vFiction 606 $aParables 606 $aReligious fiction, American 607 $aMorganton (N.C.)$xSocial life and customs$vFiction 608 $aShort stories, American. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aProtestants 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aParables. 615 0$aReligious fiction, American. 676 $a813/.6 700 $aGould$b Claudia$0801395 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996212793003316 996 $aJesus in America and other stories from the field$92089354 997 $aUNISA
