Driving Jesus to Little Rock, fits with Merullo's other beloved, quirky-spiritual books--a list that has been translated to over ten different languages. Eddie Valpolicella, is on his way from Massachusetts to Arkansas to give a talk on his novel, Breakfast with Buddha, when he picks up a mysterious hitchhiker. Plainly dressed, insisting that he's a fan of the author, the hitchhiker claims to be Jesus--the Jesus--and accompanies Eddie on a five-day road trip that challenges him in an amusing variety of ways. Jesus plays tricks appearing and disappearing, changing shape, vacillating from stern teacher to affectionate friend--and Eddie, confused, suspicious, and wrestling with his own preconceived notions of spirituality, very slowly realizes that he's being given precious guidance in the art of living. Merullo raises deep philosophical questions without sounding preachy and provokes readers to reflect on life while also making them laugh.
