Synopsis

Deb Grant’s collection of poetry is a genuine first-hand experience of someone who is not only a disaster survivor but someone who stands in the gap between devastation and survival for those impacted. Her realistic and sometimes raw interpretation of the disaster experience has the ability to bring you to the “place” where survivors are, through words that can engage your senses and create sights, sounds, and even the smells of what that experience brings. This collection will be a lesson for those wanting to help, a kindred space for those who do the work, and a resource for those still healing to know they are not alone. —Jessica Vermilyea, Executive Director, Disaster Response, Lutheran Social Services/Upbring.org ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “This is not your grandmother's pastor's poetry. STORM is as bold as the title implies, offering perspectives and styles of poetry as varied as are the disasters that visit every person. Gritty and tender, this intensely visual volume is for those courageous souls who walk alongside others through the disorienting landscapes and heartscapes that accompany every storm.” —The Rev. Stacy Stringer, Director of Hurricane Recovery, Episcopal Diocese of Texas ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Amazingly true and real. Pastor Deb Grant has captured every situation and emotion that exists surrounding a hurricane disaster. From the definition of muck to sharing an altar in a sister church. From looters to becoming a weather geek to naming the deceased. Pastor Grant has experienced everything she has written and presented it in her unique style of writing.” —Mike Anderson, National Weather Service, 29 Year Veteran of Flood Forecasting, Survivor of Hurricane Camille
