In Redemptions, D. Brandt draws readers into six poetic cycles that follow the soul's quiet struggles and discoveries--from sin's heavy hold to the everyday grit that builds resilience. Rooted in Christian faith, these poems face brokenness with grace, push back against machine-made art with real human spirit, and turn creative limits into deep connection. Playfulness hones the heart, sudden insights quiet the mind, and daily battles foster strength--all shaped in forms, like villanelles, that echo chains breaking into freedom.

Brandt, once a biochemist and now a poet, shows how discipline leads to release, calling readers to uncover joy in letting go. This isn't mere poetry; it's a witness to kindness that shapes choices, blending belief and craft through humor, stillness, and tough delight. For anyone grappling with faith and creativity, it becomes a steady friend in life's contradictions.

D. Brandt turned a Kansas basement chemistry set into lifelong curiosity, publishing early poems in high school's Non Pareil (1973). A PhD in biochemistry from Kansas State led to decades in science. Poetry claimed him later; Redemptions is his first collection. He lives in Lafayette, Indiana, with his wife, Cheryl; their four children, spouses, and four grandchildren are scattered from nearby to afar. He runs barefoot and refuses easy answers.
