Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A powerful poetic sequence confessing the fictional life of a lost, wounded soul in a decaying New England town. Jantz does not shy away from meeting the big questions head-on: the meaning of life, of love, of God's absence, of death. It is at once a sober embrace of reality and a plaintive cry for redemption. Jantz weaves these themes into an existential tapestry that is rich in imagery and meaning, yet direct and highly accessible. It is a profound artistic achievement not to be missed. Jantz's 'Wasteland' is Fitchburg, Massachusetts, and he masterfully describes the decay of an old mill-town and a profoundly alienated man, with an unflinching, gimlet eye. This lyrical narrative has the depth of a novella, and the heightened language and insight of a brilliant poem. - Doug Holder, Editor, Ibbetson Street Exquisitely lyric, these poems are an extraordinary blend of powerful emotion and intellectual reflection.

Philosophy has been made poetry. A book that enlightens at first reading but demands many more. - Dr. Hazel E. Barnes, Distinguished Professor Emerita of Philosophy at the University of Colorado; translator of Sartre's Being and Nothingness and Search for a Method, and author of The Literature of Possibility, and An Existentialist Ethics. …
