You sure this is what You had in mind, Lord?" asked Reverend Billy Ray Halstad on the dusty, lonesome ride into Purgatory City. Only a minister who'd been truly saved from his past would commit himself to preaching in a dilapidated, drafty church to a congregation of unfriendly parishioners in an isolated ghost town. Billy Ray Halstad had never felt more lonely than he did those first forty days in Purgatory City, and began to question whether he'd lost his calling to do God's work. loan from CTLS Large Print Circuit.

Once, when the world was new, God looked down on His creation and was disappointed. The skies rained down on His world for forty days and forty nights. He made Noah the inheritor of His creation.

A History of My Brief Body
Author: Billy-Ray Belcourt
Publisher: Univ. of Queensland Press
ISBN: 0702265195
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Billy-Ray Belcourt's collection of personal essays opens with a tender letter to his kokum and memories of his early life in the hamlet of Joussard, Alberta, and on the Driftpile Cree Nation. From there, it expands to encompass the big and broken world around him, in all its complexity and contradictions: a legacy of colonial violence and the joy that flourishes in spite of it, first loves and first loves lost, sexual exploration and intimacy, and the act of writing as a survival instinct and a way to grieve. What emerges is not only a profound meditation on memory, gender, anger, shame and ecstasy, but also the outline of a way forward. With startling honesty, and in a voice distinctly and assuredly his own, Belcourt situates his life experiences within a constellation of seminal queer texts, among which this book is sure to earn its place. Eye-opening, intensely emotional and excessively quotable, A History of My Brief Body demonstrates over and over again the power of words to both devastate and console us.
