<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Poetic meditations on Jesus Christ.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Palpant's second volume of poetry is a riff off of T.S. Eliot's character in <em>Choruses From </em>"<em>The Rock," </em>the one who knows how to ask questions. In <em>The Stranger, </em>Palpant attempts to answer the most troubling of all questions, <em>"Where has God gone?" </em>These poems offer ancient answers in a uniquely personal and contemporary way, exploring God's divine intrusion into our world in the person of Jesus Christ and his subsequent disruption of our existence. This book is one man's attempt to rise and meet the Stranger. Poetry that points our hearts and minds back to Jesus-sometimes humorously, sometimes fiercely, but always hopefully.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This is a book worth savoring-slowly, purposefully, repeatedly." -W. David O. Taylor, author of <em>Open and Unafraid: The Psalms as a Guide to Life</em></p><p><br></p><p>"An enthralling event!" -Carolyn Weber, author of <em>Surprised by Oxford</em></p><p><br></p><p>"A marvelous achievement. The poems in this collection are audacious, thought-provoking, and possess a quality that is strangely absent in so much contemporary verse. Namely, the sublime." -Jeremiah Webster, author of <em>After So Many Fires</em></p><p><br></p><p>"Poems that challenge us...reverential without being overly pious, wry and good-humored, sometimes even fierce. . .well-crafted works of art." -Jennifer Wallace, author of <em>Almost Entirely</em></p><p><br></p><p>"A daring and a tender undertaking." -Mischa Willett, author of <em>The Elegy Beta</em></p><br>
