A Sense of Order and Other Stories

Jack Harrell

“Jack Harrell’s fiction is the finest we’ve seen by a Mormon author. He is a convert rather than a hot-house Mormon, which explains how he can so strikingly conjure both ‘the darkest abyss’ and ‘the utmost heavens.’ Writing about redneck cowboys or more urbane souls, his creations are believable, his prose impressive, his imagery captivating, and his plot turns unexpected. He is unrivaled among LDS authors.” –Thomas Rogers, author of Huebener and Other Plays

“A Sense of Order is a knockout achievement that leaves the reader reeling.” –Angela Hallstrom, editor of the Mormon literary magazine Irreantum
