THY WILL BE DONE
BLURB FOR “THY WILL BE DONE”
A fast but true track into the heart and soul of the reader’s mind. By way of Marshall, Wynn’s principal character in “Thy Will Be Done”, the reader is taken through the annals of a likeable mischievous child to that of a deeply dark and troubled adult. A touch of just the right amount of comedic relief allows us to laugh and stay in touch with the true nature of Marshall who begs us to empathize with his true self. As difficult as it appears to be, we learn that not a lot of needling is necessary to gain our support.
Wynn reminds us of his stark and uncompromising humor found in “The Big Sale” and “A Different Kind of Patriot” when he tells us about one of Marshall’s occupations during early adulthood. Having a somewhat artistic bent all of his life, Marshall develops an affinity for Texas road kill – About the most unlikely subject matter an artist might choose as a favorite medium. But, choose it he did, and to the surprise of most around him, it worked. The mangled bodies peeled off remote highways of animal and bird life took on an almost magical and eerie pathos as the destroyed bodies slowly made the journey from bitter beginnings enroute to becoming a true work of art. If he had any doubters, all it took was a visit to his showroom or work area to prove differently.
Guns or roses were each just as likely to typify the mood of Marshall on any given day. When Wynn has wrapped “Thy Will Be Done” he leaves us with an unusual combination of emotions but dissatisfaction certainly is not one of them.
Wynn also allows us a peek through a window into his personal soul by revealing his life long battle with alcoholism. For those whose life has not been touched by alcohol and drugs his experience is explained so clearly that it is near impossible that a reader could be left without a footprint of fear when considering the treachery and depravity introduced into lives of those who allow themselves even a little more than a passing acquaintance with alcohol and drugs. We learn of the power held by alcohol and drugs when allowed even a slightly more than even advantage in an individual’s life. In “Thy Will Be Done”, Wynn takes us on a journey through youth, friendship, addiction, hope and redemption through recovery.
