Summary |
It's the summer of 1968, and Evelyn Lynden is a woman at war with herself-minister's daughter, atheist, independent woman, frustrated wife, bitch with a bleeding heart. Following her conscientious-objector husband Lenny to the rural Eden of Evergreen Valley, California, Evelyn wants to be happy with their new life. Yet she finds herself disillusioned with Lenny's passive ways - and anxious for a savior. Enter the Reverend Jim Jones, the dynamic leader of a revolutionary church....Meticulously researched and masterfully written, Beautiful Revolutionary explores the allure of the real-life charismatic leader who would destroy so many. It follows Evelyn as she is pulled into Jones's orbit?an orbit it would prove impossible for her to leave. |
