Born in France, Jean-Mark Sens has lived in the American South for over twenty-five years. He currently lives in South Carolina near Clemson, where he is a librarian at Southern Wesleyan University. His work has appeared in many magazines in the US, Canada, and England, and he has published two previous collections: Appetite and Bric-à-brac-adabra.
"""One of the marvelous surprises in Angels and Visitors is its subdued cadence. . . . Sens quietly opens his novitiate spirit to a sacred realm where the word 'angel' is transformed. The 'Cellular Angel' 'is 'the Angel of here and there, ' he writes. That call and response, as with the Angels of Wall, Ropes, Technicolor, Rain, and others, becomes a singular and satisfying intonation."" --Martha Serpas, author of Double Effect ""Angels and Visitors is a dazzling collection of poems that open the imagination of willing readers--who inhabit a secular age--to transcendence, to a sacramental space where spirit and matter dance. Jean-Mark's years of reading, praying, wondering, wrestling, writing, and refining have given birth to literary gems that reveal angels at work everywhere, bearing beauty and hope into the shadowlands."" --Tom Neal, Notre Dame Seminary"
