The Left Hand of God

Arts & Literature

““The cast of characters who animates this world may surprise some—St. Francis, la petite Therese, and the late ‘lowlife’ Angelino poet, Henry Charles Bukowski—but it shouldn’t. They, along with you and I, sit at the table of humanity, all of us flawed, beautiful, and perishable. In this collection, our days of joyousness and suffering co-exist in a palimpsest of time that is, at once, astronomical, ancient, medieval, and contemporary.”

Trouble in the Diocese

Arts & Literature

“These are poems in conversation with themselves; they're not ready to clock out until they've done the hard work of seeing each of us naked, fresh in the light of impending mortality, self-contradictory, praise-worthy, and revolting as a flea or false preacher. Nobody is immune from David Craig's razor-sharp humor and fresh excoriations, his dread and his joy.”
