About this listen

Rarely has an Evangelical upbringing been depicted with the relentless honesty, wide-ranging empathy, and Superbad-meets-Siddhartha playfulness of USA Today best-seller HELL IS A WORLD WITHOUT YOU. During the time of Pizza Hut buffets, 9/11, and all-night Mario Kart parties, a grieving teenager faces a mortal crossroads: fire-and-brimstone certainty vs. forbidden love. And whether or not you’ve ever begged God to delay the Rapture (so you could have time to lose your virginity), that kid’s story is about you.

Walking the Path to Salvation isn't easy when you are a teen, and especially when you are an evangelical Christian with a dad who is condemned, friends who stray, and God's voice in your head telling you when you fail. Especially when you fall for a girl.

A hilarious and biting coming of the ages story about a friend group, and a family, told through the eyes of Isaac, younger brother, self-loathing and kind.

Dedicated to the cause, Isaac experiences the diversity of what Christian ministry has to offer, and gradually asks more questions than he likes the answer to. A story about how love and friendship can transcend and survive the vampiric and abusive power of religious fervour forced onto young people and about how to truly love your neighbour and yourself.

Filled with cultural references from music to Tolkien, this book explores the highs and deep pitfalls of growing up as a religious right American teen and how to survive.

So funny, but yeah... trauma.
