“I read This House, This Town at one sitting, something I rarely do. The book is like a faceted diamond that you turn round and round, so that the light keeps falling on the varied colors and dazzlements of the jewel. Its center is the grasping, roving imagination of Bob Hamblin that sets one perspective after another on fire. After awhile, the reader rushes a bit toward the section endings, because one has been taught to anticipate finding calm elegance there.” Jay Martin, author of Journey to Heavenly Mountain

DUST AND LIGHT presents a montage of 36 poems based on the life and writings of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the Jesuit priest, paleontologist, philosopher, and author who died in 1955. The poems dramatize Teilhard’s lifelong endeavor to reconcile religion and science, as well as his conflict with the Catholic Church over his ideas and his own personal quest for justice, order, and love.ABOUT ARS OMNIA PRESSThis text is published by Ars Omnia Press.

Dogwood Winter and Other Seasons

Poetry. In KEEPING SCORE, Hamblin celebrates sport as both a participant and a spectator. The heat of competition, the camaraderie of the team, and the memories of games and athletes past, in both victory and defeat, are captured here. Keeping Score is, indeed, an offering of "God's plenty," poems ranging, in subject, from childhood baseball to pole vaulting. It is, without question, the most comprehensive collection of sports poems, by one author, on the market. And for anyone who cares about sport and poetry, Hamblin's words, like those of the early radio sportscasters he admired, are proclamations "from angelic messengers."--Don Johnson.

Time Being Books

Set in a small Missouri town in 1994, Leaving Here tells the story of the mob violence and persecution directed against the Sylvan Sisters, a colony of lesbians and abused women. Coming to the aid of the women is Larry Andrews, a wealthy but depressed St. Louis lawyer who sets out one morning to commit suicide but winds up seeking purpose and redemption in his efforts to assist the women. This novel is a powerful indictment of the injustices that propelled the Gay Rights and Me Too movements.
