The Further Tales Of Tempest Landry (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
On that sunny Monday afternoon, on the bus ride to the state penitentiary, I heard booming in a clear sky. Another thing about angels is that they have persuasion over unsuspecting mortal minds—when the objective is impersonal and there is no relationship involved. This is why, when I first came to earth, I thought that it would be a simple task to convince Tempest Landry that he was a sinner deserving of hell. I have so far failed to argue Tempest around to heaven’s point of view but I was able to convince the deputy warden of his prison to allow me to teach a literacy class at the joint (as Tempest calls it) and to allow my earthly charge to be my aide. Even though I am charged with sending him to hell, I feel that his suffering, due to heaven’s conspiracy against him, is unjust. Angels are united by the nature of our spirits but we are not compelled to agree with one another. So while the heavens above thundered I was led to a classroom replete with a barred window that looked out on a field where six black-and-white cows grazed.
