The collection of essays in author Daniel Cox’s I Felt the End Before it Came are at once fanciful and pragmatic, heartfelt and heartbreaking. In a style reminiscent of David Sedaris, Cox winds his narratives through personal history with intent, if not always ease. The lead essay, The Letter, introduces the culture of the Jehovah’s Witnesses for any unfamiliar and Cox’s relationship with the order and the people in his life he had to leave behind.
