Beauty, Suffering, and the Lenten Journey

Podcast regular David Booz joins me to talk about Erik Varden's The Shattering of Loneliness:  On Christian Remembrance.  When a friend gave me this book as a present, I thought she felt sorry for me, but once I got past the title, I found a deeply insightful, rich, accessible treatment of God's commands regarding memory.  David says this book changed his life.  Our conversation includes Andrei Makine, Stig Dagerman, Rainer Maria Rilke, Vassily Grossman, Gustav Mahler, Maïti Girtanner, and more.
