Publisher's Synopsis
Suffering gives us insight, perspective, and words to offer others along the way. Reluctant Prophets, in poems and prose, follows a cast of characters plucked from real life and fantasy, from the natural world and pop culture worlds, as they, as we make the pilgrimage from tragic fall to triumphal return and from loneliness to light. J.D. Isip's third collection challenges the reader to turn back to what you'd rather outrun-the pain, the people, the past-because there are lessons left in the rubble, and they are needed for whatever comes next.
