Publisher's Synopsis
The Intrigue Of An Imperfect Beauty is Ahrend Walters' fifth book and he continues with his themes of paradox, contradiction, genius, imperfection, and beauty. Walters believes he is a genius, but not out of any vain pretense, but rather as recognition of a gift God has endowed him with. His goal through his writing is to bring a greater awareness of our flaws (his included), no matter how talented any of us may be, and that true perfection can only be found in and through Jesus Christ.
This book is full of splendid and delightful wordplay with Ahrend's trademark lack of grammar and imperfection combined with praise for creation, derision for pride and sin, and hope that more will discover that Jesus Christ reveals the only perfection in creation. Additionally, there are poems with a political slant, admiration for nature's beauty, self-vulnerability, and odes to his love for his wife, Rachel. There is a progression in his writing from his previous works. His poems are often still complex and can even be confusing, but there are also lines of riveting and beautiful expressions that demonstrate a maturing and developing style all his own.
The book also contains a biography of Ahrend Walters. The purpose is to give you a greater insight into this artist, writer, and man, so that you may better understand his drive, his mission, and his intriguing life expressing itself in imperfect beauty.
