A Dream of the Tattered Man

This gripping volume records Randy Loney's weekly visits with prisoners on Georgia's death row, movingly portraying the personal relationships he developed with men awaiting execution.In these powerful meditations Loney tells how he came to visit death row and speaks candidly of the intellectual and theological resources that shape his understanding of his visits. Whatever one feels or thinks about the issues related to death row, Loney brings the reader closer to the men who live their lives on the brink of death. Though the book contains an implicit critique of the American justice system and capital punishment, Loney's primary intent is to show, in very intimate terms, the genuine humanity of those deemed unworthy of life.
