Sixty prose poems ("proems," by the author's reckoning) on matters theological, spiritual, and mystical. White a bit outside Orbis' traditional spirituality offerings, this book will offer readers a lyrical but commonsense take on the ways grace, prayer, sin, suffering, and redemption play out in our daily lives. Doyle's "proems" are lyrical creations resemble poetry, but devoid of any meter or typical poetic structure - and yet they are not strictly prose either. These sixty selections will focus on the mundane and the everyday, but with a theological and a spiritual focus/gloss. Some will also be explicitly theological. Doyle is a prominent Catholic writer and editor, and his reflections in journals ranging from America to Harper's to The New York Times have earned him a significant following in the field of Catholic spiritual writing. In his previous books and articles, he has written spiritual/theological glosses on everything from fatherhood to basketball to religious vocations to his Sunday school classroom.
