KINGDOM COME

by Virginia Sorenson ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 16, 1960

This is the story of the Danish backgrounds of Mormonism, and centers about Svend, a young cowherd and his tortured romance with Hanne. Against a background of Mormonism in its initial stages--the eternal hope of a new way of life either as martyrs in their own land or saints in America--one learns to care deeply for the two main figures of the book and the minor characters with whom they are involved. This vivid study of youth in its painful apprehension of good and evil is absorbing both as a portrayal of a human and a historical situation.
