Nick Horton shares and declares hope in a broken and groaning world. After several decades teaching, mentoring, and guiding discouraged people, I am slowly learning how to walk more rugged roads with others. They are often weary travelers who have faced squalls and storms of life. How do we handle sadness brought on from depression, broken families, emotional disorders, loneliness, or even death itself?

None of the Old Testament prophets was especially happy or confident in their calling, but Jonah was the only one who rejected it outright, disobeying direct instruction from God and literally running away. In The Book of Jonah, Luke Kennard transforms the unique and awkward position Jonah’s story occupies in scripture – part dream, part joke, part provocation – into a madcap picaresque which marries the sacred and the absurd.

Pour les attraper au moment crucial, Comment nous sommes nés déploie ses phrases amples, ses vers durs, monnaie qui brille au fond de la fontaine. Suspendus entre ciel et terre, entre deux époques; au bowling, au centre commercial, au ciné-parc, les personnages de ces poèmes arrivent à la fin de leur histoire.
