December Leadership Blog Review Event
December 04, 2011 • No comments
“Kicking at the Darkness is a brilliant analysis of forty years of Bruce Cockburn’s lyrics and their biblical and religious connections. Brian Walsh’s explication is thoroughly researched and logical, and also compelling and entertaining. I read it from start to finish in one evening.”—Joel Goldberg, producer/director of Bruce Cockburn, Pacing the Cage
“At last, a robust engagement with Bruce Cockburn’s art that brings Canada’s prized poet-musician into sustained and creative dialogue with biblical faith. Brian J. Walsh writes with obvious affection for his subject but also considerable lucidity as he ranges far and wide across the Cockburn canon. Good things happen when erudite theological reflection takes popular culture seriously. This book is a case in point.”—Michael Gilmour, associate professor of New Testament and English literature, Providence University College, Manitoba
Brian J. Walsh (PhD, McGill University) is the bestselling author or coauthor of several books, including The Transforming Vision, Truth Is Stranger Than It Used to Be, and Colossians Remixed.
