Through beautiful language, the characters step off the page. InWORSHIP OF HOLLOW GODS,James Sniechowski bears witness to the world of a sensitive, nine-year-old boy, subjected tothe underbelly of his Polish Catholic family in working class Detroit. The year is 1950. The family gathers for a Friday night family poker/pinochle party. Theoutcome reveals a world no one ever talked about then and are forbidden to talk about now the unspoken, the impermissible, the reality beneath every family's practiced facade andwhat lies beneath when the front has been ripped away. Sniechowski unsparingly yet compassionatelyevokes the temptations, trials, and tactics of the familycharacters while revealing the hollow gods they naively but fatefully worshipped. Readers, no matter where in the world,will be prompted if not pushed to confront the hollow gods that reside, like living ghosts, in the unseen of their family's way of life, the invisible that sources and shapes their beliefs and behaviors. WORSHIP OF HOLLOW GODS dredges upfamilial bonds that grip and hold tight, unconsciously dictating our destiny.It is story telling at its caring and compelling best. 'The prose is powerfully evocative, ably capturing the bewildered isolation Jim experiences in his own home: 'At nine years old, I could feel that barrenness, the draining effect of mechanical living; feel but not make sense of; feel in my body like a worm screwing itself into my every day.A poignant and poetic depiction of a tumultuous childhood.'~Kirkus Reviews Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
