"Can't this singing be / one brief note that / catches my heart / as in some / net // and flings it back to God?" wonders Elizabeth Pinborough in this, her debut collection-and indeed, The Brain's Lectionary gazes fearlessly at any number of hard questions. About the body's betrayals. About the seeming indifference of God. And, fundamentally, about the unreliability of language itself. No lexicon will suffice to account for the serial mortifications of human experience, much less when the brain, our word-organ, has suffered a dis-ordering, de-selving shock. Pinborough attends to these hard questions with clear-eyed courage and remarkable compassion, offering up this new psalter on "new matter" that combines words, images, and silences to make legible the whole person, seen and unseen.
