The Assembler of Parts

by Raoul Wientzen

In 'The Assembler of Parts', we experience the poignant journey of eight-year-old Jess from an extraordinary vantage point: the afterlife. Born with a condition that left her without thumbs and other vital parts, Jess's life is a mosaic of the love and healing she brings to those around her. Her narrative, rich with wisdom and wit, intertwines her own story with those she's touched. Even as she grapples with her physical imperfections, it is through these very flaws that she becomes a catalyst for transformation in others, from her closely-knit medical team to her family, reeling from her sudden, inexplicable death. Only in the wake of tragedy and a whirlpool of suspicion cast towards her parents does the full significance of her existence crystallize, and the Assembler's grand design is finally illuminated. Woven with lyrical prose that dances between the tangible and the spiritual, Raoul Wientzen crafts a compelling tale that probes deep questions of faith, humanity, and the measure of a life.
