Sorry. I wrote that the author was Sydney Wallace when in
fact his name was Sydney Watson. I keep getting his name
confused.
I found the book for free on "Open Library" so it can be read
online. Just Google Open Library and then put In the
Twinkling of an Eye in your title search once you have arrived
at the Open Library website.
I found it interesting. Like I said the novel isn't that
good. Watson was not a great writer and his depiction of
some Americans living in the south was stereotypical. The
value lies in his depiction of the Jewish Zionist connection to
the fulfillment of Bible prophecy and the pretrib rapture which
you get explained about half way through.
I found especially interesting that so long ago people could
already recognize the signs for Jesus' return! Perhaps
Watson believed he would be alive to see it. He would be
staggered to see the signs that we see now.
