<p>When Proctor McCullough decides to desert his comfortable London life to build a church on a clifftop, nobody knows what to make of it: McCullough is not religious. Is it a midlife crisis Has he gone mad Is he suffering a spiritual breakdown in a secular age, where identity is shaped by wealth and status Or has he really been chosen by God for a new revelationMcCullough finds himself torn between love for his family and a group of local drifters who are helping him to build his church. When one of these drifters commits a shocking act to test his beliefs, McCullough finds himself pushed to the very limits of understanding and forgiveness.As a God Might Be is an epic novel, and Proctor McCullough is a complex and deeply human character struggling to cope with the grand issues of modern life. "Imagine, if you can, a contemporary novel with the theological engagement of Dostoyevsky and the ethical seriousness of George Eliot... As a God Might Be addresses some of the most serious and pressing questions about our twenty-first century sense of identity without either cynicism or soppiness and it will confront all open-hearted (or minded) readers with themselves and the universe they stand in. This is a strange, disturbing and extremely beautiful novel. It is the sort of novel I thought could not be written nowadays. How lovely and exciting to be wrong" -- Sara Maitland, A Book of Silence"A bold, provocative and disorienting novel. Its metaphysical questing, moral conundrums and sexual entanglements are worthy of Iris Murdoch." -- Michael Arditti, Easter"There is no middle flight about this mighty novel. And at its heart there is that divine madness which is the mark of the true work of art." -- Mike McCormack, Solar Bones"As a God Might Be is written with energy and vividness and deals uncompromisingly honestly with the human complexities of encountering and speaking about God</p>

Literary

Here are the stories. I changed every word. Make of them as you will.UnAmerican Activities explores the conspiracy theories and violence of modern America through a series of interlocking stories told by deranged and desperate narrators. Populated by meth addicts, vampire hunters, porn stars, fanatical evangelists, disgraced academics and zombified hipsters, James Miller's third novel is a crazy homage to American pop culture and genre fiction and an unforgettable road trip through the dark heart of the United States."The weirdness of deep America fascinates James Miller and in this, his third book, he wades into the fever-swamp. What he dredges up is not decorous, but how can decorum get the measure of a nation whose paranoid fantasies are creating the very dystopia that it fears and secretly craves UnAmerican Activities is compelling, appalling and deeply entertaining a sequence of dispatches from the sulphurous rim of the Moronic Inferno." -- Gregory Norminton, author of The Ghost Who Bled and The Devil's Highway"A deliriously enjoyable book raw and wild and kinetic as a thriller. Here is an America racked by its End Times: a place of porn stars and vampires, fanatical priests and priapic zombies. It's dark as hell. It's alarmingly familiar. It's very very funny indeed." -- Tom Bullough, author of Addlands and Konstantin"These brilliantly imaginative and highly readable stories evoke a fraying, febrile America populated with messianic porn stars, heavily-armed survivalists, and millenarian sects, all craving an Apocalypse that may or may not come..." -- Rob Doyle, author of Here Are the Young Men and This is the Ritual
