Lindsey Royce has given us a beautifully observed book of love and remembrance, loss and endurance. You will be moved. You might even be changed. It is shining with life (Luis Alberto Urrea). This is poetry that touches and transports, which is what we expect from the art; the difference in The Book of John is the generosity with which the poet nourishes our creativity, inspiring us to sing-renewed!-in our own voices. Lindsey Royce serves us our communion feast with her sublime poetry, inviting us, "Break bread with me then- / Make merry, drink my wine." (Aliki Barnstone)
