Rec. #174 (abbrev.): The Frequency of Souls
What: Mary Kay Zuravleff, debut novel, refrigerator engineers, electrical sound waves of the dead, the Veteran, cryogenics, Dino Park, hearing aids, miracles, control, Niagara Spense, real estate, homemade clothing, music theory, farce, piquant turns of phrase, science fair, Washington, D.C.
Representative quote: "His intentions of telling a simple story had led him out on a personal limb, and he wasn't sure if it could hold his weight until he was finished."
Also: Zuravleff followed this novel with The Bowl Is Already Broken (Rec. #46).
