I Close My Eyes and I Almost Remember - Matthew J. Andrews - Bog

Born of spiritual crisis, I Close My Eyes and I Almost Remember is a collection of poems that wrestle with the complexities of faith through the interrogation and reinterpretation of biblical stories. With an unflinching eye, these poems focus on characters who struggle with their place in the grand narrative: Isaac with the trauma of his near sacrifice, Ezekiel with the staggering costs of his prophecies, Peter with the guilt of his betrayal, and John with the despair of his exile. In doing so, they ask hard questions about what it means to seek the divine in the shadow of a fallen world.
