A Persevering Witness

Arts & Literature

“"Elegant, sensitive, inspiring, and challenging. As the reader journeys into the poems of Margaret Avison with Davey they are in the company of an expert guide to and commentator on both the spiritual and the literary possibilities of Avison's poetry. No dry literary criticism here, but life-enhancing interpretation and response to Avison's often oblique call to Christian witness. Meticulously researched and beautifully written. Davey serves both Avison and the reader very well indeed.”
