David Dark has something funny and interesting to say about all kinds of things. He brings his troubled wits to bear on Flannery O'Connor, Radiohead, the Big Lebowski, and America's conflicted understanding of itself while generally assuming that politics, religion, and culture are different words for describing the same thing. His books (Everyday Apocalypse and The Gospel according to America) are cited approvingly by people like Eugene Peterson and Phyllis Tickle. And as the husband of living legend Sarah Masen, the father of three, and a high school English teacher, he also finds time to google his own name on the Internet entirely too often.
