Beth Am Book Club “The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell” ~ by Robert Dugoni January 18, 11:00 AM Facilitated by Bonnie Surrey
Sam Hill always saw the world through different eyes. Born with red pupils, he was called “Devil Boy” or Sam “Hell” by his classmates; “God’s will” is what his mother called his ocular albinism. Her words were of little comfort, but Sam persevered, buoyed by his mother’s devout faith, his father’s practical wisdom, and his two other misfit friends.
