This extended poetic meditation on the nature of exile and of suffering is dedicated to the poet's family in Paris, London, Meknès and Oujda. The evocation of the dispersal of the immigrant in different lands and to far away cities also makes a fitting epigraph for the themes of solitude, of loss, of remembering around which the text is woven. This is the song of the Moroccan exile, but it is also the song of all exiles and emigrants, the 'orphans' of the world with whom the poem opens.A nostalgia for a childhood and a homeland nonetheless pervaded by poetry, a desire to understand the self and the world, a search for an identity amongst the languages and the cultures that surround him are all reiterated here with an emotive force.D. Kelly
Kuidas ebakindlus saab süvendada usku?Tihtipeale tekib inimestel küsimusi usu kohta, isegi kui neist kellegagi juttu ei tehta. Kas Jumal on päriselt olemas? Mis siis, kui ma aeg-ajalt Jumalat ei usu? Kas Jumal üldse armastab mind? Ben Young teab, mis tunne on, kui oled oma kahtlustega üksi. Seepärast ulatab ta abikäe kõikidele kahtlustega maadlejatele.Raamatus "Ruum kahtlusele" pakub autor:* soovitusi, kuidas tulla valus ja kannatustes toime Jumalas pettumisega;* ausat lähenemist rasketele küsimustele Jumala, Piibli ja usu kohta;* näiteid, kuidas klassikud C. S. Lewis, dr Martin Luther ja Ema Teresa oma kahtlustega hakkama said;* selgust, mille poolest erinevad kahtlemine ja uskmatus ning ebakindlus ja müsteerium;* tõdemist, et kahtlus ja usk käivad sageli käsikäes.See raamat räägib, kuidas lasta kahtlusel muutuda pigem liitlaseks kui vaenlaseks, ja kuidas küsitavaks pidamine võib süvendada usku.
