Triple Crown is the only triple heroic crown of sonnets in the English
language. The highly structured and interwoven poems deal with three
aspects of reality as seen through the lens of scripture: the universal, the
societal, and the personal. The first cycle of sonnets has a universal theme,
the retelling of the story of Creation. The second cycle describes the conflicts
of the kings of ancient Israel in the early days of its national existence. In the
final cycle, Job describes his suffering, and rails against a world which
appears to be devoid of justice.
In this annotated edition, the author cites the Biblical texts undergirding the
poems, and clarifies pertinent principles of quantum mechanics and kabbalah
as they relate to the text.
Eric Chevlen, MD, was born in Youngstown, OH, in 1949. Before writing
Triple Crown, he practiced medical oncology and pain medicine. Thirty
years' experience in the care of desperately ill and suffering people, and
decades of study of Holy Scripture culminated in his writing this book.
