A remakable collection of stories involving the inner life of Hawaii and those who live and visit there. Volcanic Jesus explores the spiritual side of the islands while digging deeply into the ways in which Hawaiians experience life in Paradise. The stories explore the quest for spiritual enlightenment, the craving for renewed life, the hopes for love and tenderness in a complex environment, and the interaction of natives and long time haole residents. The magical, the holy, the hopeful, and the deeply religious quests are at the root of these stories.
