But those are just whispers of a past lost to time. The summer of 2000 was different. Iggy in the Baptist church. Gasoline and a match. Twenty-five people dead. This, Harmony couldn\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n<p>Told in a kaleidoscope of timelines and voices, Michael Bible examines every dimension of a tragic but all-too-American story in The Ancient Hours. The victims, witnesses, perpetrators, and condemned comingle and evolve as the passage of time works its way through their lives. What emerges is a fable of the American South in the highest tradition: soaring, tragic, and eternally striving for redemption.<\/p>\n<p>Book Review: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/12\/15\/books\/review\/michael-bible-ancient-hours.html\">https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/12\/15\/books\/review\/michael-bible-ancient-hours.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h6><a href=\"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/terms-and-conditions\/#turn-books-condition-rating-scale\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Condition &#8211; Like New (5\/5)<\/strong><\/a><\/h6>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/terms-and-conditions\/#turn-books-condition-rating-scale\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8994\" src=\"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5_star.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"31\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12567,"template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"product_cat":[378,71],"product_tag":[674],"class_list":{"0":"post-12701","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-fiction","7":"product_cat-literature","8":"product_tag-anglophone-literature","9":"pa_book-author-michael-bible","10":"pa_publisher-melville-house","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-simple"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/12701","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12701"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=12701"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/turn-books.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=12701"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
