“Complete with scintillating parallels and anecdotes, Mario Kiefer has erected an eerily accurate tale of humanity and familial love. Akin to the serpent with the apple of knowledge, Kiefer challenges the reader with a new vision: a clearer vision. How much will we lose before we are ready to lose the worst parts of ourselves? Heartbreaking in its truth, The Ordinary Sin is a story of the sin inherent in life, and the beauty that can be found in both, if only we allow it.”
