Synopsis "Genesis Just So!"

What really happened "in the beginning"?In Genesis. Just So! Bob Prophette takes the world's oldest stories and retells them with a twinkle in the eye, a wicked sense of humour, and more than a dash of Kipling's Just So magic. Here the Whale leaps from the formless deep, God misplaces his patience (and occasionally his holidays), Adam wonders what's for breakfast, and Abraham tries very hard indeed to be fruitful-sometimes with surprising results.These are the tales you half-remember from childhood, half-suspected from Sunday School, and never quite imagined like this. Each chapter re-spins a foundational story of Genesis: creation and catastrophe, serpents with appalling manners, brothers who can't share breakfast, angels with questionable hobbies, and humans who just won't stop building towers. Woven throughout is Prophette's warm, sly commentary on belief, power, blame, and the peculiarities of the God of Genesis-whose infinite resource and sagacity may not always be quite what you expect.Beautifully illustrated by Stuart Faulkner, Genesis. Just So! is at once a parody, a tribute, and a fresh invitation to read these ancient stories anew. It will make you laugh, wince, ponder, and-perhaps-look again at the first book of the Bible with renewed curiosity.Because in the High and Far-Off Times, oh Best Beloved, things didn't always happen quite the way you were told.
