Publisher's Description
This intimate kaleidoscopic journal takes the reader through the cycles of faith and doubt that typify the author's spiritual journey from his childhood and youth in Puerto Rico to his retirement years in the United States. Lyrical prose, poetry, and story combine to express the vagaries of a spirituality that, at one and the same time, is unable to gloss over the difficult, often heartbreaking questions of faith, and yet cannot give up on the longing for God.

Foreword
“I suspect . . . that for Pedro, to write is to pray, which is why And Yet . . . is in truth a prayer book. This is a splendid collection, a precious gift to me as a seeker of honesty, compassion, and sacred truth.”
“The itinerary this book traces of an agnostic, zigzagging soul is nonetheless intensely spiritual—moving, even overwhelming—in its truthfulness. Many readers will identify with the author’s confessions, whose Augustinian tone is readily perceived.”
“Neither lightning nor faith can be caught in a bottle. Regarding the latter, . . . nor a creed, a vigorous moral code, a precise ritual practice, or a particular emotive temperament. Faith requires more dexterity, a willingness to wander, a capacity for wonder. ‘For the world has grown full of peril,’ Galadriel said in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. Nevertheless, ‘hope remains while the company is true.’ Pedro Sandín-Fremaint is true company.”
