ZERMATT
By Frank Schaeffer
Carroll & Graf, $25, 248 pages.
REVIEWED BY JON WARD
It is clear from the second page of Frank Schaeffer's novel "Zermatt" that the Becker family, the protagonist unit from Mr. Schaeffer's two other novels, is near collapse. Rachel, the 16-year-old middle child, says the family should proselytize to others at a ski resort in Switzerland.
"We're supposed to be missionaries," she says, prompting a quick reply from her father Ralph.
"We're on vacation," he growls.
