A rogue order of nuns, tucked away in California's Humboldt County, are raising an undocumented deity on the down-low. Persecuted by prayer eaters and the birdmen of the Great Church, The Sisterhood is on the verge of extinction when a mysterious white monkey appears in a snowstorm with a special delivery.
Expect a hotbed of heresies, a feminist insurgency, and divine monkeyshines in this tale of redemption and karmic justice.
To quote the Godma: "You can't begin with a failed garden and finish with an apocalypse. It's an unworkable story."
In the Godma's radical thought experiment, the Garden of Eden becomes aspirational. Not a has-been, but rather a never-was, and therefore possibly a yet-to-be.
