In The 13th Sunday after Pentecost, Joseph Bathanti offers poems that delve deep into a life reimagined through a mythologized past. Moving from his childhood to the present, weaving through the Italian immigrant streets of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to his parochial school, from the ballpark to church and home again, these contemplative poems present a situation unique to the poet but familiar to us all.
As Bathanti recalls the joys, struggles, and confusion of his formative years in the late fifties and into the sixties, he gains a deeper understanding of the often surreal, always paradoxical world around him. He explores the perceived injustices of childhood, observes the mysteries of religious rituals, and examines the complex emotions families experience as children grow up and parents grow old. These poems divulge an eventful life, compelling us to reflect on our own as we confront a world of wonder and uncertainty. Across the strike zone swoops a dove, maybe an angel. You're in Pittsburgh, March; it's snowing. All week you've seen angels; everyone's tired, proclaiming even horrid things angels, intimating miracles. Johnson's pitch obliterates the bird-- a hail of feathers and dander, as if inside a tiny bomb detonated. Like a cartoon. Thoroughly unbelievable. Around you, people are dying. But you ignore it. You laugh at the massacred dove. It's not funny, but you laugh. You could cry, rip your hair out, your clothes off, crash through the seventhfloor window into the slushy black streets of the city. It's funny because it's not. --from "Angels"Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent flavor, tenderness, texture and quality
Wow, blown away by the excellent flavor, tenderness, texture and quality.
I have never eaten Biltong before but it came up in Chatgpt when I asked about a great protein source to carry in my motorcycle tank bag that tastes better and has less UPFs and sugar than most beef jerky. The answer it gave me was Biltong.
I gave this a try and love it.

Very moist jerky
I like this style of jerky because it’s natural and I like the fat that is in it. I have purchased other brands that I like better than this brand. The taste is good, good quality and the product is very fresh. My only issue is I like dry jerky and feel the moisture content is way too high in this product for me. If you like moist jerky, than this is for you. If you like shoe leather jerky keep searching.

Best biltong tasted to date
Biltong depot produces the best biltong I have tasted to date . I was ordering the 8oz slabs till now but I am going to order these instead . Same taste but the convenience is that it’s already been thinly sliced . The only thing I could say is a negative is it has too much sodium which could be reduced.

Actual biltong that is not dried to the point of being jerky
If you are like me, you have ordered biltong as slabs and pre-sliced slabs from a bunch of companies promising the real deal. Too many of those companies trim the fat or dry things out so much that it might as well be American beef jerky with coriander added to the spice blend. This just arrived and we opened the bag not expecting anything different honestly. I am sitting here eating it and logging on to write a review because this is finally the real deal. I wouldn't say that it is wet, but it isn't American jerky level dry either and there is good fat on the pieces. It's pricey, and there was a dry piece or two and a bit of fat that hadn't been properly flavored, but it is the next best thing to a freshly sliced wet and fat slab. If you can afford this treat, don't waste your money on the less expensive stuff -this is what you are missing.
