LINCOLN, Nebraska - November 8, 1999 - On October 27, 1999, Jan Peregrine's brave new novel, Eden in Limbo: A Three-Act Play in Spirit, was tossed with great ease into the midst of 21st century fantasizing. As a spiritual fantasy novel that combines poetry with storytelling, it's a catch you don't want to miss.
Millions of people are looking for Eden. They want to feel they belong. In this novel,. they will be able to relate to the skeptical, but inquisitive humans in this book who, curiously enough, encounter an Internet ad placed by someone claiming to be God's messenger.. Could this be what they're looking for? If only to be entertained, they go to this meeting on a meadow to hear his message.
Yet this messenger turns out to be 21st century compliant. God has taken a male human form; his female partner in the spirit world being silent to all but him. Like most men today, he wants to learn to communicate better. As a God of the new century, he wants open communication with every person.
MORE THAN ENTERTAINMENT, BUT STILL FUN
Eden In Limbo is a dramatic play in spirit. It shows us a God who wants to have fun with us. Not simply be serious. Take, for example, his message that he is not an angel. He recognizes a butterfly on his hand as one, but he also knows that his audience will not yet accept such an idea. Jan Peregrine, content to discover her spiritual identity through many paths, remarks, "God's message should stimulate greater freedom in your spiritual understanding. That's why God in this 21st century Eden desires that we find ourselves in our own ways."
There is no forbidden apple here. All trees and other living creatures share their knowledge of God and it is no sin. Eden in Limbo: A Three-Act Play in Spirit spreads that message with an equally pagan and godly intention. Fantasizing about the new millennium has never been more fun.
