Inhaltsangabe

In Redemptions, D. Brandt draws readers into six poetic cycles that follow the soul’s quiet struggles and discoveries—from sin’s heavy hold to the everyday grit that builds resilience. Rooted in Christian faith, these poems face brokenness with grace, push back against machine-made art with real human spirit, and turn creative limits into deep connection. Playfulness hones the heart, sudden insights quiet the mind, and daily battles foster strength—all shaped in forms, like villanelles, that echo chains breaking into freedom.

Brandt, once a biochemist and now a poet, shows how discipline leads to release, calling readers to uncover joy in letting go. This isn’t mere poetry; it’s a witness to kindness that shapes choices, blending belief and craft through humor, stillness, and tough delight. For anyone grappling with faith and creativity, it becomes a steady friend in life’s contradictions.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

D. Brandt turned a Kansas basement chemistry set into lifelong curiosity, publishing early poems in high school's Non Pareil (1973). A PhD in biochemistry from Kansas State led to decades in science. Poetry claimed him later; Redemptions is his first collection. He lives in Lafayette, Indiana, with his wife, Cheryl; their four children, spouses, and four grandchildren are scattered from nearby to afar. He runs barefoot and refuses easy answers.
