Yes, the first part of that book is a tour de force. I'd recommend that first chapter to anyone, Christian or not. It's incredible writing -- just brilliant. As you indicated, his unpacking of the word "sin" was amazing.

I was less impressed with the rest of the book.

Well said! Who else do you like?
Have you read any of Spufford’s fiction?

I’m about 85% through it. I agree.

A bit too liberal.
