520    "Rebecca Stott both adored and feared her father, Roger 
       Stott, a high-ranking minister in the Brighton, England, 
       branch of the Exclusive Brethren, a separatist 
       fundamentalist Christian sect. A man of contradictions, he
       preached that the Brethren should shun the outside world, 
       which was ruled by Satan, yet he kept a radio in the trunk
       of his car and read Shakespeare and Yeats. Years later, 
       when the Stotts broke with the Brethren after a scandal 
       involving the cult's leader, Roger became an actor and 
       compulsive gambler who left the family penniless and ended
       up in jail....In the Days of Rain is Rebecca Stott's 
       attempt to make sense of her childhood in the Exclusive 
       Brethren, to understand her father's role in the cult and 
       in the breaking apart of her family, and to come to be at 
       peace with her relationship with a larger-than-life figure
       whose faults were matched by a passion for life, a thirst 
       for knowledge, and a love of literature and beauty. A 
       father-daughter story as well as a memoir of growing up in
       a closed-off community and then finding a way out of it, 
       this is an inspiring and beautiful account of the bonds of
       family and the power of self-invention."--Jacket .
