"The Ancient Hours […] packs a wallop" —New York Times Book Review
"The Ancient Hours is brilliant.” —Bud Smith, author of Work
"Bible is a fantastic writer." —Kevin Wilson, author of Nothing to See Here
Harmony, North Carolina is a typical town—full of saints and sinners you can’t tell apart...
Its history echoes with lynchings and shootings; mob violence and vigilante justice. But those are just whispers of a past lost to time. The summer of 2000 was different. Iggy in the Baptist church. Gasoline and a match. Twenty-five people dead. This, Harmony couldn’t forget.
Told in a kaleidoscope of timelines and voices, Michael Bible examines every dimension of a tragic but all-too-American story in The Ancient Hours. The victims, witnesses, perpetrators, and condemned comingle and evolve as the passage of time works its way through their lives. What emerges is a fable of the American South in the highest tradition: soaring, tragic, and eternally striving for redemption.
