>> The first truly personal book by a theologian unanimously regarded
as the most promising of his generation
We are in danger of no longer being able to pose the fundamental questions
regarding our existence. There may be many reasons for this mutism:
the impossibility of inhabiting the crystallized languages of our Christian
tradition; the absence of attentive listeners capable of soliciting our words,
to tell what dwells within us and describe the world as we perceive it…
The apostle Paul situates that surprising event, which is speaking, at the
heart of an ordeal or a ‘crossing’: speaking becomes an inner need for one
whose expression is the only means of ‘manifesting life even in the bosom
of death’: ‘I did believe, therefore I spoke’ (Ps. 116; Co 4, 10).
This human experience, often acquired with difficulty, is the expression par
excellence of a Gospel of freedom whose transmission depends on very
precise human and spiritual conditions. The author’s intention is to deploy
and reveal them.
