The Book of Jonah [The Interim Years]

by Eric Marlin

Jonah’s been running from God, ever since escaping the belly of the whale. He can’t seem to forget his ex-lover Isaiah as he waits in a rainy train station somewhere in Moscow. And waiting with him is a sad young woman named Anna Karenina, who has her own train to catch. "The Book of Jonah" is the story of the heartbroken Jonah and Anna as they begin to grope their way towards a sense of logic in their sorrows.
