Publisher's Synopsis
Told from the viewpoint of four unforgettable characters, this is the story of an ordinary girl, thought to be a modern-day Holy Virgin. An awkward and shy teenager, Francesca is elevated to the rank of the divine by a visionary homeless man, Chester. Anne is Francesca's no nonsense mother, and Sid is her troubled friend with more than a few secrets of his own. In The Annunciation of Francesca Dunn, these stories intersect and bring to light the need to believe, and the volatile relationship between divinity and madness.
