Grief is a language we all eventually speak. Whether it arrives as a whisper or a storm, it leaves nothing untouched. It slows us down. It knocks the breath from our lungs. It changes everything. For people of faith—especially Christians—grief doesn’t just break the heart. It shakes the soul.

In The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels.

The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history—including the first murder, Cain's killing of his brother, Abel—and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.

Through vivid storytelling, this historical account reveals the disturbing influences and grim motives that possessed Alessandro Serenelli, St. Maria Goretti’s murderer. Yet it is much more than a chilling tale; this true narrative is a testament of transformation and redemption — God’s mercy shining forth through the most seemingly hopeless of situations. Just as great literature and spiritual writing have the power to transform the soul and spur it on to heroic deeds, the force of immoral prose can corrupt and even drive the soul to unspeakable deeds.

This book presents for the first time in English a fresh translation of seven of his most moving letters that sought to soothe his friends who suffered the loss of spouses, children, relatives, and loved ones.
