  Zero at the Bone - Fifty Entries...

  Christian Wiman

  Few contemporary writers ask the questions about faith, morality, and God that Christian Wiman does, and even fewer—perhaps none—do so with his urgency and eloquence. Wiman, an award-winning poet and the author of My Bright Abyss, lays the motion of his mind on the page in this genre-defying work, an indivisible blend of poetry, criticism, theology, and searing memoir. As Marilynne Robinson wrote, "[Wiman's] poetry and his scholarship have a purifying urgency that is rare in this world . . . [It] enables him to say new things in timeless language, so that the reader's surprise and assent are one and the same." 
   
   
   
  Zero at the Bone begins with Wiman's preoccupation with despair, and through fifty brief pieces, he unravels its seductive appeal. The book is studded with the poetry and prose of writers who inhabit Wiman's thoughts, and the voices of Wallace Stevens, Lucille Clifton, Emily Dickinson, and others join his own. At its heart and Wiman's, however, are his family—his young children (who ask their own invaluable questions, like "Why are you a poet? I mean why?"), his wife, and those he grew up with in West Texas. Wiman is the rare thinker who takes on the mantle of our greatest mystics and does so with an honest, profound, and contemporary sensibility. Zero at the Bone is a revelation.

  The Wilderness Hunter

  The Wilderness Hunter is Theodore Roosevelt’s firsthand account of America’s vanishing frontier—written by a man who lived it, studied it, and fought to preserve it. 
  Blending natural history, personal narrative, and philosophical reflection, Roosevelt chronicles his hunting expeditions across the plains, forests, and mountains of the American West. He writes not as a conqueror of nature, but as an observer and participant—examining wildlife behavior, the discipline of ethical hunting, and the character forged by time spent in untamed country. 
  This work captures a pivotal moment in American history, when the frontier still existed but was rapidly disappearing. Roosevelt’s prose is confident, measured, and deeply informed, revealing both the rugged physical demands of wilderness travel and the intellectual curiosity of a statesman-naturalist. 
  Narrated by Brett Carter with steady authority and respect for the text, The Wilderness Hunter remains a foundational work in American outdoor literature—part memoir, part natural record, and part cultural document of a nation in transition. 
  This audiobook is Certified Human Voice™, verifying that the narration was performed entirely by a human narrator, with informed consent, transparent production practices, and no use of AI-generated or synthetic voice technologies.
