And the Risen Bread · Selected Poems, 1957-1997

"And the Risen Bread" is a harvest of 40 years of poetry by Daniel Berrigan. Beginning with poems written largely on biblical themes, the book moves on to reflect the increasingly experiential inspiration of Berrigan's poetry -- poems written from the front lines of the struggle for peace and justice, poems from the courtroom and the prison cell, and finally, poems of harsh but hopeful reflection.
