Singularities by David T. Manning

$14.99

 

Singularities brings wonder in detail upon detail from childhood until now, especially as it recounts experiences of your growing up in the church, the hope of puberty flaring unmistakably toward immortality, the promises, mysteries in a cat waiting for tuna, the dark needing and finding hope—and—most of all—love, forever, as words find music in every line.

—Shelby Stephenson

 

In Singularities, David Manning delivers a truly remarkable reading experience. The images are telling. The settings of time and place are both immutable and oddly interchangeable. The voice that delivers them is exactly blunt enough to be credible without being abstruse. This is a book to hang onto forever, or at least for whatever time we have left.
