The Last Byzantine and Other Pointed Poems

"The Last Byzantine and Other Pointed Poems" is a collection of poetry focused on the forces that have led to this moment in the history of our great Faith. Poet J.R. Campanelli introduces penetrating verses on the rapid deterioration of the West. "The Last Byzantine" is particularly stunning in its historical accuracy as a retelling of the dramatic events of the fall of Constantinople. Other poems include three "diabolical" sonnets that bring to mind images of "The Screwtape Letters," but go even further by showing how the devil twists things to his advantage. Suitable for both teens and adults, Campanelli's poetry covers morality, relativism, marriage, the right to life, and more.
