God has blessed me with the ability to use words. He called me to read this book. To say that I'm lost for words would be to describe a great work of art as "good" or "bad". I have never been impacted so deeply by something that stubbornly subverts my ability to define it. This book doesn't just leave me lost for words; it leaves me as Dr. Allender shows "orphaned", "exiled", and "widowed" for words. I highly recommend it.
