OLDER FICTION
Bedard, Michael

Stained Glass

(1) YA When Charles, hiding out in a pew in St. Bart's church, sees a stained-glass window break and fall on a homeless girl sleeping below, his concern for the girl starts him on an odyssey that takes the two of them all over his home town and into the shattered pieces of his memories. At first the going is pretty slow, but Bedard has achieved a breathtaking marriage of structure, image, and theme.
