Givens, By the Hand of Mormon
Has anyone read Terryl Givens, By the Hand of Mormon?
http://books.google.com/books?id=a5O...result#PPP1,M1 I found a cheap copy at Half Price Books and cruised through most of it this weekend. There are a couple of parts I need to spend more time on, though. If you've read it, what did you think?

Absolutely stunning commentary.

don't be envious of my graduate training in literary criticism. That's tough stuff.

I have no doubt that Chino's review is well deserved.
