The World to Come by Dara Horn
The World to Come

Lior7, May 25, 2007

This book was a great read. Horn's writing is so different from anyone else's. She covers many historical and religious type questions. The question of where do we come from, where are we going, what is the purpose of our existance, they are all asked and answered in a different way that I was both expecting and what i belive. An amazing book that I plan on reading and referring to for the rest of my life.
