Trade Review“Ethics for Apocalyptic Times is at once memoir, philosophy, literary criticism, theology, and poetry; it concocts a genre of its own through original concepts and methodologies.”
—Raylene Hinz-Penner,Lecturer Emeritus, Washburn University
“Although Ethics for Apocalyptic Times intervenes in an established conversation, it is inherently boundary-pushing and will certainly make an iconoclastic yet constructive contribution. The diversity of voices that Cruz draws from in this book is unparalleled. No other scholar in the conversation is drawing from such a wide source base while also making creative, normative, and critical interventions that unsettle the basic assumptions that many in the field still hold.”
—Maxwell Kennel,author of Postsecular History: Political Theology and the Politics of Time and Ontologies of Violence: Deconstruction, Pacifism, and Displacement
