    A Saint on Death Row will introduce you to a young man whose history, innate goodness, and final days you will never forget. It also shines a necessary light on America's racist and deeply flawed legal system. A Saint on Death Row is an absorbing, sobering, and deeply spiritual story that illuminates the moral imperatives too often ignored in the headlong quest for justice.

    If you could sum up A Saint on Death Row in three words, what would they be?

    True, sad, enlightening, maddening, uplifting. Sorry, I couldn't stop at three.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Absolutely, but it would have been bad for my blood pressure.

    Author Paul Torday makes his debut with this clever absurdist novel. Fisheries scientist Dr. Alfred Jones is approached by an extravagantly wealthy sheik with a novel plan. To foster goodwill, the sheik would like to introduce salmon fishing to Yemen - the same Yemen that is largely a desert - and politicians think it's a great idea.

    Story

    Before reading, I mean hearing this book, I'd never considered fly-fishing, but now....
    The book is original, clever, and bitingly funny. Thoughtful, too. The elegant writing is matched by the reading and production. The readers/actors did a wonderful job of accents and expressions. I may listen to it again just for the pleasure of it.
    This was my introduction to Paul Torday, taken up at the recommedation of a friend. I'm going to look for more of his work right now.
