In Redemptions Refrain, D. Brandt brings his trilogy to its culminating arc, where the soul rises from descent into a long, steady answering of grace. These five cycles trace the slow rebuilding that follows deliverance—how mercy, once received, becomes a rhythm; how joy, once glimpsed, becomes a practice; and how faith, once bruised, begins to sing again.
Here the poems turn from collapse to resonance, from the inner ache to the outward echo of a life remade. Through crafted forms, patterned cadences, and the discipline of refrain, Brandt shows how renewal unfolds not in sudden triumph but in repeated returning—small fidelities, quiet recognitions, and the daily choosing of hope.
Where Deliverance revealed mercy in weakness, Refrain explores what comes after: the struggle to live upheld, to carry grace into ordinary days, and to let joy recalibrate the heart. These poems do not promise ease; they witness how the soul learns to trust its footing again.
Brandt offers readers a companion for the long obedience of restored life—a poetic witness to the God who not only delivers but sustains, shaping echoes of redemption into a refrain that continues long after the storm.
