Redemptions Refrain

Bol

In Redemptions Refrain, D. Brandt brings his trilogy to its culminating arc, where the soul rises from descent into a long, steady answering of grace. These five cycles trace the slow rebuilding that follows deliverance--how mercy, once received, becomes a rhythm; how joy, once glimpsed, becomes a practice; and how faith, once bruised, begins to sing again.Here the poems turn from collapse to resonance, from the inner ache to the outward echo of a life remade. Through crafted forms, patterned cadences, and the discipline of refrain, Brandt shows how renewal unfolds not in sudden triumph but in repeated returning--small fidelities, quiet recognitions, and the daily choosing of hope.Where Deliverance revealed mercy in weakness, Refrain explores what comes after: the struggle to live upheld, to carry grace into ordinary days, and to let joy recalibrate the heart. These poems do not promise ease; they witness how the soul learns to trust its footing again.Brandt offers readers a companion for the long obedience of restored life--a poetic witness to the God who not only delivers but sustains, shaping echoes of redemption into a refrain that continues long after the storm.
