Description
Dan Bellm's third book of poems takes at its starting point the weekly portions of the annual Torah cycle. Working in the midrashic tradition, the poems offer meditations on faith, doubt, yearning, family ties, love and loss, and the age-old roots of modern-day war. Dan Bellm is the author of two previous books of poetry, One Hand on the Wheel and Buried Treasure.
