READERS ARE SAYING:
“In the end, Mr. Thyne teaches us that as broken as we may become, the light still can get in, bringing full inclusion to the family table, together with deep love and hope for the future. [The Crack Where The Light Gets In is] an inspiring book, well worth the read.”
ABOUT THE NOVEL
As faith in God and devotion to religion slip relentlessly toward the margin, more and more of our friends and family members are left to find their way in the ensuing emptiness and confusion. In The Crack Where The Light Gets In, three generations in two widely diverse, deeply intertwined families search for something real, something credible to believe in. Their search is like the one more and more of us are engaged in.

“Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in”
