New novel by Michael Brown
reviewed by Nancy Snipper
Michal
Brown's attention to detail is astounding. His talent for creating a
coterie of highly distinct characters with aberrant tendencies is truly
remarkable. The dialogue plays out naturally; we feel we know these people and
in many ways, we identify with their personal frustrations and confusions.
Strange and fascinating, his heroes and anti-heroes carve out their bizarre
destiny in shocking yet riveting ways; and we find ourselves asking this
critical question: How much are they really in charge of their actions? Framed
within a context of the occult and the unpredictable, "The Consecration of
Jacob Jordaens" is a unique page-turner that will most appeal to
readers intrigued by motive, wicked family woes and self-serving pleasures fueled
by the mysterious and the unexplained.
