New Release! To and Fro Upon the Earth: A Novel

[Markus]

My literary novel, To and Fro Upon the Earth, was published last week by Riversong Books. It is different than most Christian fiction in that issues of faith are found in the themes of seeking meaning and purpose in life through suffering, injustice, and loss. (Like the book of Ruth, God and faith are not mentioned directly, yet underly everything that happens.)

DM me if you are interested.

From the Publisher:

The debut novel from author Markus McDowell, this literary work is a re-imagining of an old-fashioned story of grief and the search for meaning in a world that seems not only uncaring, but vindictive. To and Fro Upon the Earth is a captivating (and disturbing) story about a man who rejects the common answers to life, suffering, and injustice. In his life, in his dreams, and in painful flashbacks, Jay Adam faces the agony of grave injustice, experiences the cold hand of fate, and reluctantly embarks upon a questionable search for meaning and hope.

Endorsements

“…well written…not for the faint of heart…McDowell takes perceived notions and completely shatters them…I believe that this novel is his wake up call to society.”

—Courtney Hancock
reviewer

“McDowell has expertly drilled deep into the core of humanity, exposing a raw nerve, a painful discovery but not without purpose…I too have struggled to make sense of the suffering, which has now propelled me into the present journey of grieving the losses. To and Fro Upon the Earth could not have come at a better time in my life.
