Review of From Nothing by Daniel Tobin
Melding
together physics, mysticism, and mathematics, Daniel Tobin, in his epic paean
to Jesuit priest and scientist Georges Lemaitre entitled From Nothing, creates
and choreographs a twentieth century re-conjured world of cosmological wonder
and Dantean horror. He conveys his tale to us in extraordinary lines of
narrative poetry. Tobin’s writing
explodes onto the page with white-hot intensity, its numinous words and birthing
suns expanding and cooling first into elegance and then into a compassionate
understanding of our human condition. For more of my review of From Nothing go here:
