Listen: 29 Short Conversations

"It is interesting to note that deep in the etymological guts of the word 'conversation' we find the early definition, 'the act of living with.' Corey Mesler's page-turning collection offers readers conversation: here is a deeply engaging mode which delights the intelligence while also registering on the nervous system of its readers - a combination that will wake you right up. These pieces also return us to the essence of the gift of conversation itself: that we might learn to live with it - the mysteries and gaps that haunt the human experience. Reading this book, I am reminded of how much I want to live with it - how the conversation is all. This is an exciting new work from a writer who knows how to position himself in order to truly listen and mercifully invites his readers to do the same." -Selah Saterstrom author of 'The Meat and Spirit Plan'
