'From the Publisher:' Full of shock and anger, this father quarrels with life and God upon the abrupt death of his young adult daughter. Brimming with painful eloquence, this wounded parent gives full attention to his anguish, yet stops short of being maudlin. He is hounded by grief and by questions which are equally burdensome. Nisly's knowledge of literature brings comfort to him and readers alike. The words of Emily Dickinson, Wendell Berry, Graham Greene, and biblical texts are part of this story. Superbly written. 6 x 9 88 pages paperback.
