"Dazzling....She writes with Milton open at her elbow but with the real dirt of a real Utah under her fingertips."--"The Yale Review" No poet writing today confronts the perplexities of the divine with more pizzazz than Kimberly Johnson. In "A Metaphorical God," Johnson showcases her gifts for mining language for its hidden gems and its gospel ("my tongue is a fovent choir, / a cloven fire"), using what she unearths to delve deep into mysteries both epistemological and holy.
