Expectably handsome paintings, beautifully detailed, and framed with a scrolled floral border, show both the real activities and some of the fanciful concepts of the people; while the text describes some of the beliefs (witches, alchemy) of medieval times, the emphasis is on conflicting theories (and their acceptance or rejection) about the shape of the earth, the paths of solar bodies, etc. Anno does not use names, but in the author's note he is explicit, in referring to statements made in the text, about Copernican and Ptolemaic theories, the burning of Bruno, the rejection and persecution of Galileo; a chronology is included.

In this way, humans use the structure and vocabulary of cultural stories to make sense of their lives and describe their experience. Through three creative nonfiction short stories, this project aims to capture the synthesis of myth and personal story in the narratives of Ethiopian evangelical Christians. Gathered in Ethiopia in summer 2014, the narratives of torture, persecution, and conversion are each paired with an Ethiopian folktale and analyzed for their connections.
