"This is a profound book. and not for the faint of heart. Joseph Kinnebrew is a deep thinker and has created a masterpiece for moral debate and further consideration. Kinnebrew crafted a surreal tale using metaphors woven together as only a consummate artist can. This book and ideas of the four concepts of faith, forgiveness, redemption and resurrection will remain in my mind for some time to come. Others would do well to read this very important book." -Rear Admiral Edward J. Hogan, USN (ret.) "Honestly, l am still shaken as to where your words took me. Places so dark where unexpected truths were revealed, naked and for all to see. I have to admit, I could only read bits at a time just so I could process the gifts of honesty and consequences. Always in there is the VOICE of our conscious mind and reason. The Orchard is not a book that will be placed on my mental library, not a book to be forgotten after a month or year has passed. This is a book that is now a part of my very existence. How many books can you say with grace, that honestly hold that place? That place of Change. Joseph, I knew you were an artist with your mind, in creating all you have visually. But, friend, your writing is an art unto its own. I cried at the end and I cried because the end was the beginning of life." -Antonella Novi
