Rose Wabos Character Analysis

387 Words1 Page

In the genre of Christian novels where ‘Left Behind’ and the like could be considered fast-food, Mr. O’Brien offers connoisseurs of literature Five-Star dining. Great writing keeps a reader turning pages regardless of subject or theme, and thus ‘A Cry of Stone’ has passed that test as people of all faiths and no faith equally enjoy the story of Rose Wabos. As the main character, Rose is magnetic. Sweet and real, naive to the ways of the world that does not touch the remote Canadian wilderness she spends her early life in. Brought up as a dividend of the investment of missionaries to far, wild country, the modern world is not accustomed to the way Rose touches the lives of the people she meets as she follows the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
