Arts Shoot The Messenger
Daniel Silva’s book The Messenger is on this coming Sunday’s New York Times bestseller list. Again. It’s been on the list for weeks. (It appears to be slipping.) As you know, most bestsellers aren’t worth discussing. They certainly don’t need extra attention. That’s why we rarely review them in The Stranger.
Rarely, but not never. Lindy West cracked open The Messenger this week. Here’s what she found.
"He saw a skinny black-haired boy with eyes as green as emeralds chasing lightning in the hills above Nazareth."
That is a hilarious mental image.
