Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Diction II: The Paradox of Faith is a formally structured poetry collection that examines belief as tension rather than certainty. Organized as a constrained dictionary, each entry begins with a single word-Covenant, Grace, Obedience, Silence-and unfolds through concrete imagery drawn from the physical world. A closing benediction follows, not as consolation, but as structural resolution.Divided into two movements-The Arc of Faith and The Consequences of Faith-the book traces how conviction forms, fractures, endures, and transforms. Rather than offering devotional reflection or theological argument, the poems isolate language itself, testing belief through compression, imperative, and material image.Part of the Diction series, this volume will appeal to readers of contemporary formal poetry, writers interested in constraint-based composition, and students of poetics exploring the architecture of language under pressure.
