Praise for Psalm to Whom(e) "[A] page-turner, [ Psalm to Whom(e) ] moves with vision andalacrity through its terrain of back roads, anomic landscapes, lost languages,loneliness, and God-hunger in its search for the various voices and guises of'the Whome who is supposed to be over all.'" --Lisa Russ Spaar, ImageJournal "This dazzling variety of poems,proems, and creative nonfiction takes the reader on both an outward and inwardpilgrimage from home to home. Driving, always driving, through sparse andlush landscapes, the present moment and memory inextricably linked, Glancysaturates her journey with Native wisdom and biblical story. She sews aquilt, stitching together the stories and meditations into a vast network ofconnections. It is more than masterful. It is a thrilling, electricride."-- Jill Peláez Baumgaertner, Professor Emerita of English,Wheaton College "Diane Glancy explores newmodes of converging poetry and storytelling in Psalm to Whom(e) , apowerful and moving "investigational [re] imagining" of the road diarycompleted in the midst of personal isolation and a global pandemic.
