Edges, Boundaries, and Connections

A lively collage of subjects, themes, & insights, drawn from a unique & extraordinary life. Longtime activist Malcolm Boyd has been called "a secular saint," "an American institution," a "disturber of the peace," & has compiled a selection of his writings that are the essence of modern American life. With compassion & wit, Boyd tells of his attempts to connect with what many people weary themselves avoiding, including the weary eyes of the homeless. He speaks out on the sacred responsibility of those whose tool is language. And he ends his book with "Twelve Guides for Living," a how-to chapter that puts certain truths for survival into the workaday realm of possibility. Boyd, an ordained Episcopal priest, was the first man invited to write a cover story for MS. magazine. Many will know Boyd from his column "You & I" in MODERN MATURITY or from his previous twenty-two books, which include GAY PRIEST: AN INNER JOURNEY & the "spiritual classic," ARE YOU RUNNING WITH ME, JESUS?
