The Annunciation of Francesca Dunn
What would happen if an ordinary teenager were suddenly proclaimed a modern day Holy Virgin? That is the premise of Janis Hallowell’s wise and provocative debut novel The Annunciation of Francesca Dunn.
“In her gently probing, gorgeously written debut novel, the Annunciation of Francesca Dunn, Janis Hallowell explores our desperate desire to believe in something . . . this book is nothing short of divine.”
-- USA Today
“Provocative and suspenseful . . . Hallowell offers no easy answers as her various narrators incisively trace the intricate connections between divinity and madness, faith and reason.”
--People, 4 stars, Critic’s Choice
