Reviews

""I first encountered Eli Deyton's poetry when he took a course I was teaching on spiritual autobiography. His poems flowed, full of piercing intelligence, longing, and faith. Poetry seemed the form of writing most capable of witness to a God who surpasses all language. His words do indeed witness, pointing to a Life that pulses in the midst of the everyday, calling us to notice and turn."" --From the foreword by Claire E. Wolfteich
