Book Review--Notes from the Tilt-A-Whirl by N.D. Wilson

Notes from the Tilt-A-Whirl: Wide Eyed Wonder in God's Spoken World by N.D. Wilson


  My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Notes from the Tilt-A-Whirl: Wide Eyed Wonder in God's Spoken Word by N.D. Wilson is more like a long, non-rhyming poem than a book.  I can easily imagine a poet well versed in oral recitation reading this book aloud to a rapt audience.

This book is filled, as the subtitle implies, with "wide eyed wonder" about the everyday things in life and while it does not recoil from the dark and the uncomfortable neither does it recoil from God. Its pithy, humorous prose draws you in and before you know it, Wilson is hitting you with penetrating and profound musings on such things as suffering, death, and the Being who created it all.
