The History of the World J Wilder-Hall

Having awoken suddenly in the middle of a life without a job, without a home, and with the remnants of a failed marriage all around him, James "Arthur" Blunicki, our beloved wandering poet of The History of the World-aided by a ragtag group of characters, other "strangers" the poet meets along the way-embarks on an epic journey to try to understand everything that has come and gone. In turns equally heartbreaking and humorous, spiritual and wildly ridiculous, this astonishing debut collection of love poems and other stories reads not only as a visceral roadmap for faith, healing, and redemption, but stands, above everything else, as a collective testament to what is truly possible when we decide to live a life full of hope, love, forgiveness, and grace.
