Sobre IBD

In this latest collection of his poetry, 'Instead of peace,' Tom Driscoll visits upon themes of faith and fact, ache and aspiration, utterance and silence. Poetry in song form, soliloquy, haiku, anecdotal, confessional- 'quite a bit of complaining sadly, but also prayerful moments, of due thanks and praise.'
