Jonah Henderson saw the ad in The Weekly Shopper on a 3 AM donut run:
Mentor seeks apprentice. Must seek truth. Apply in person.
He almost threw the paper away. He'd had enough of other people's "truth." The ad leads him to Helena, an older woman with no last name and a different reading of "In the beginning was the Word."
Meanwhile, the school where Jonah teaches has given him an ultimatum. He can either teach the Bible as literature or lose his job. Righteous Men billboards multiply across Memphis. Politicians are sounding like preachers, and preachers are sounding more like politicians every day. Somewhere in the middle of it all, Jonah has to decide what's worth keeping when the faith you grew up with turns out not to be what you thought.
A novel of ideas about stories, rules, and the people who create them, Schrödinger's Faith asks what happens when the windmills in the distance turn out to be giants after all.
