In The Book of Vernie, Weddle brings us a unique blend of Southern Gothic sensibilities, philosophy, theology, and psychology. Written with a sure ear for the cadence and flow of her native Southern dialect, Weddle's charactes bring us on a journey of exploration. What is love? Where can we find the Source? In these days of fake news and propaganda, when we must constantly re-evaluate what makes America what she is, Weddle reflects upon the power of naming what we see and what we know. Only by naming evil, can we begin to defeat it. Only by naming the changes we see in the world around us, in the body politic and the psyche of the country, can we begin to defend ourselves against the demons in the background. The Book of Vernie is an odd and troubling allegory and a timely reminder of the need for eternal vigilance against the forces of the night. Orla McAlinden, author of The Accidental Wife and Flight of the Wren.
