The Lost Book of Mormon by Avi Steinberg
Is The Book of Mormon a Great American Novel? Avi Steinberg thinks so. In this quirky travelogue--part fan nonfiction, part personal quest--he follows the trail laid out in Joseph Smith's book. From Jerusalem to the ruined Mayan cities of Central America to upstate New York and, finally, to Jackson County, Missouri--the spot Smith identified as the site of the Garden of Eden--Steinberg traces The Book's unexpected path and grapples with Joseph Smith's demons--and his own. Literate and funny, personal and provocative, the genre-bending The Lost Book of Mormon boldly explores our deeply human impulse to write books, and affirms the abiding power of story.Avi Steinberg grew up in Cleveland and Boston after being born in Israel. His writing has appeared in magazines such as the Boston Globe, New York Times Magazine, Salon, and others.
