She is the darling of Mormondom. He is the nonbeliever that her family will never accept. Lena facetiously calls him \"Jack,\" a mildly disparaging term for inactive members of the church.When Franceska glides into his life, Marc begins to consider the abandoned practice of polygamy as a possible solution for his enduring love for Lena and his growing affection for Franceska.Most Mormons hate the practice, even though their church once embraced it and taught that it was essential for the highest salvation. The course that Marc pursues wrecks his career, soaks his life in grief, and leads him to search his soul for the meaning of existence.Written in elegant prose, JACK delves into the struggles of finding a personal path in the face of universal opposition and disapproval.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ariel Hammon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berry Knoll Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.78d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999193419\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAriel Hammon received his degree in mathematics from the University of Utah.
