Publisher's summary

Honore de Balzac is regarded as one of the founders of realism in European literature. He was a keen observer of detail and presented in his stories an unfiltered representation of society. He is known for his multi-faceted characters. Even his lesser characters are complex, morally ambiguous and fully human. Christ In Flanders is a story of faith..and a miracle.

Too Predictable and Dry Narration

This is more than a bit predicable and parable-like, yet the prose are good.
The narration is not exactly bad, but is dry and a bit monotonous.
It is 29 minutes at 95 cents which I found not worth either the time nor the money.
