Book excerpt: Just before the Reformation, a feral child raised by wolves and a shipwrecked atheist are discovered by local inhabitants on a remote Mediterranean island. Their simultaneous appearance becomes both an omen and a challenge to church authorities to prove that humankind is born with the knowledge of angels. At once a mystery, an adventure tale, and a medieval fable, "Knowledge of Angels" is a hauntingly poetic masterpiece.
