David Weiss

    1 janvier 1909 – 29 novembre 2002

    Formé comme théologien, David réfléchit sans cesse à Dieu. Que ce soit en tant que père ou grand-père, professeur d'université, moniteur d'école du dimanche, poète ou écrivain, il cherche à imaginer Dieu de manière utile et pleine d'espoir. Dans cet ouvrage, il transpose les perspectives tirées de ses études théologiques dans un récit d'une simplicité trompeuse et d'une profondeur évidente.

      You could say that Little Mirror is a book-length conversation with an inanimate object. Or you could say it's a monologue in forty-seven fragments told to a different kind of fragment--a piece of mirrored glass. Or it's a confession made to a listener who cannot hear. Or a cri de coeur to a fellow traveler who cannot feel. Or a series of meditations on failure and grace and how to live, addressed to a companion who can reflect but not reflect on. This is a book whose plain talk with a thing of little value becomes a refiner's fire to burn away self-deception and dishonesty and replace it with clarity.
