Title: The book of the angel
First published: 2004
Description: "These poems use the millennial standpoint to contemplate the eternally unfathomable mystery of the Incarnation. The divine and secular are held in solution by a series of vignettes of the Annunciation, followed by a visitation to the most this-worldly and carnal paradise of Hollywood, Los Angeles." "Included are responses to the apocalyptic wars engendered by September 11, but ultimately the book's focus is on personal triumph over the forces of dissolution and the possibility for human salvation through the advent into this life of extraordinary and exceptionally loveable individuals, who may or may not be akin to what we mean by 'angels'."--BOOK JACKET.
