God resolves for a third and final time to get it right, to select a vessel through whom He can direct human affairs, and to whom He can communicate directly His will. He chooses a solitary figure whose trust must be wooed, but whose faith, once secured, will surely reflect even greater glory and love. Were matters only that simple. In \u003ci\u003eOnly Human\u003c\/i\u003e, Jenny Diski's brilliant and affecting retelling of the Abraham and Sarah story, God learns that no man, chosen or not, is solitary, and that the bonds forged by the human heart are resilient even to divine commandment. Diski transforms an archetypal tale of Old Testament obedience into a fierce love triangle, a test of wills over not only mankind's future, but over who will tell the story of its past.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJenny Diski \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eSkating To Antarctica\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Dream Mistress\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eStranger on a Train\u003c\/i\u003e from Picador.
