Stephen Perry’s boundary-shattering poems feature many diverse voices. Complex, unpredictable narrators like Perry are rare in poetry, but even rarer is his range of subject matter, drawing on philosophy, science, history, etymology, archeology, psychology, poetry, sexuality, music, etc., in fact anything of human interest. Perry’s Questions About God combines world mythologies of an astonishing range—from Greek to Judeo-Christian, from Hindu to Buddhist, even flirting with American Indian Blackfoot lore—coalescing all into a synthesis of science and myth in a grand celebration of the natural world. The perspective is wholly humanist, of interest to skeptics and agnostics and atheists and all those who distain the absurdities, crudities, and cruelties of a simplistic fundamentalist mindset.

Author Bio:
I’m a poet, born in Brookfield, Missouri, but my folks and I moved to Southern California when I was five. Unlike T. S. Eliot, who was a good ol’ boy from Missouri also, I’ve not developed a fancy accent, but sound more like a native Californian, with just a wispy hint of the Southern in words like “warshcloth.”
