Read a sample Read a sample

Life is what happens when you're busy waiting for the second coming. Meet the Bloom family – a large, raucous but quietly damaged family growing up in the Christadelphian sect in Ballarat. To them the Bible provides everything that any of them need to know about life, the future and Jesus Christ's imminent return. They are a small but close-knit community where you are forbidden from straying, or risk being ostracised. Funny, touching and heart-wrenching all at once, Holy Bible explores what it would be like to grow up in a highly controlled environment. What happens when we confront the fear that has held us in that space for so long? What happens to the family? And is it possible to rewrite the guide book by which we live?
