Mark Wallace

    Mark Wallace se ve své tvorbě zaměřuje na prozkoumávání temných zákoutí lidské psychiky a společnosti, často s využitím prvků gotického vesmíru. Jeho próza vyniká pronikavým pohledem na absurditu a tíživost moderního byrokratického života. Prostřednictvím detailních popisů a introspektivních momentů Wallace odhaluje skryté napětí a úzkosti, které formují naši realitu. Jeho styl je zároveň precizní a evokativní, čímž čtenáře vtahuje do složitých světů svých postav.

      In a time of rapid climate change and species extinction, what role have the world's religions played in ameliorating--or causing--the crisis we now face? One can point to Christianity's otherworldly theologies, which privilege our spiritual aspirations over our natural origins, as bearing a disproportionate burden for creating humankind's exploitative attitudes toward nature.And yet, buried deep within the Christian tradition are startling portrayals of God as the beaked and feathered Holy Spirit--the "animal God" of historic Christian witness. Through biblical readings, historical theology, continental philosophy, and personal stories of sacred nature, this book recovers the Christian God as a creaturely, avian being promiscuously incarnated within all things.This beautifully and accessibly written book shows that "Christian animism" is not a contradiction in terms but Christianity's natural habitat. Challenging traditional Christianity's self-definition as an otherworldly religion, Wallace paves the way for a new Earth-loving spirituality grounded in the ancient image of an animal God who signals the presence of spirit in everything, human and more-than-human alike.

      When God Was a Bird
    • Set against the backdrop of San Diego's urban landscape, this long poem captures the city's essence from September 2015 to May 2016. It intricately weaves through various elements of city life—apartment complexes, streets, and coffee shops—while reflecting on the coexistence of humans and other creatures. The meditative tone invites contemplation, yet underlying tensions hint at deceptive realities. The observer's experience is one of both distance and connection, as the imagery evokes a sense of longing for a complete understanding of the environment.
