Title: Ezekiel
Subtitle: vision in the dust
First published: 1997
Description: The biblical prophets - those classic disturbers of the false peace - continue to hold religion and history accountable to the word of God. In his latest work, poet and peacemaker Daniel Berrigan explores the Book of Ezekiel, one of the most troubling works of scripture. Combining his own poetic paraphrase of Ezekiel's strange oracles with insightful reflections on a society in chaos, Berrigan makes the prophet speak to us anew.

In Ezekiel's apocalyptic visions of death and his prophecies of new life, Berrigan finds timely warnings and consolations for our own time. The art of Tom Lewis-Borbely forms a stunning accomplaniment to the text, underscoring the interwoven images of nightmare and dream, destruction and hope.
