About this book
The only sense I ever made out of life was when a man told me the kingdom of God is placed between this world and the one to come. he said it hangs like a curtain between what I can see and feel (everything fragile and fading, like me) and everything whole. as weak as I am and as blind, it's here waiting to show itself. . . .---Ben deVriesWhat do you do when your experience of life doesn't match up with what you thought it should be? A delicate fade offers an intense, stream-of-consciousness narrative as a twenty-something writer wrestles with this and other questions. including quotes, snippets of poems, and a detailed and sensory exploration of the world around him, Ben DeVries chronicles his struggle to live between what is and what should be. an intensely personal journey of doubt, faith, and hope, a delicate fade is an honest chronicle of one person's exploration of Christianity, postmodernism, and the meaning of life.A lifetime and I saw you, I can see you changeI remember everything (except what I am now)I remember how I spent all this time lookingA lifetime watching, but I lost myself somewhereI found myself between what is and what was meant to be.
