Moving and Approachable
Revisado: 02-27-22
This is a poignant collection of poems, several of which moved me to tears--something that does not happen often. Through clear yet vivid imagery and thought, Malcolm beautifully expresses the pain of feeling God is absent, but rallies and checks his murmur with equally beautiful expressions of faith and trust. For both, I thank him.
The way he tied each of the core poems to Herbert's original was delightful and really unified them as they probed different aspects of prayer and feelings about it. The additional poems at the end, which are many, varied in tone and content, so there's something for everyone. His reading is also superb. I hope he reads more of his works.
Before even finishing this collection on Audible, I purchased a text copy of it and four of his other works. I am delighted to have found him.
