Publisher's Synopsis
In another story, the LDS prophet is drawn to s simpler time when he could wander out unnoticed and buy a candy bar. Church Security won't let him outside on his own and Public Relations won't let him wear anything but a suit and tie. Still, the impulse to be a regular guy for an afternoon is compelling. Can't he make his own decisions? He can, but what are the consequences?
And then there's Jerry, who passes three men in suits who are talking and laughing at the loading dock behind an LDS temple. One of them looks up, drops a cigarette and crushes it, then slips into a nearby car. Another man-someone who has made Jerry's life miserable-taunts him, saying: "Jerry, your goodness is your enemy …and tell all your friends." Who is responsible? Maybe it's the author's reverie that's to blame, but his stories have a way of getting deep inside the psyche and haunting us.
