God Knows expresses King David's anger with God. David tells his story in bits and pieces, seguing from one event to another. It's a love story, told by a man angry with God over the loss of his son. It is bittersweet, and absolutely hilarious. Best of all, it is a novel worth reading just for the last sentence. (Don't peek! You'll lose the effect.)
