Angela Himsel, A RIVER COULD BE A TREE

Angela Himsel, A RIVER COULD BE A TREE

Angela: It's a memoir. It's about growing up. I'm the seventh of eleven kids. I grew up in Southern Indiana in what some people might consider a cult. Let's call it an alternative kind of religion. It was called the Worldwide Church of God. We believed that the world was coming to an end any second. We were going to be spirited away to Petra in Jordan when the world came to an end. I grew up that way. Through many twists and turns, I ultimately converted to Judaism. It's about that particular religious journey. I would hope that it's also about the possibly of change in any sense of the word.
