註釋

After Eden is the only comprehensive collection to date of poetry by an extraordinary woman. Those who have known Gloria Okes Perkins as a biblical counselor or author of the Love Life books may have been unaware of her poetic accomplishment. Most of the poems of this collection have been prized and/or published in Christian magazines, anthologies, newspaper columns, and poetry journals such as Voices International, The Sand Cutter, The Inkling, Rockford Review, Pegasus, Tradition, Christian Poetry Journal, Stepping Stones, Berries from the Thorny Hill, and Prize Poems of the NFSPS. Awards include the Grand Prize of the Poetry Society of Arizona, the Edgar Allan Poe Memorial Award of the Poetry Society of Virginia, the Poet Laureate Award from Poets Roundtable of Arkansas, the Grace Vantwerp Woodward Award from the National Federation of State Poetry Societies, and many more. From the introduction by Mary Alice Larson: "Those who thoughtfully read Part I, "After Eden," and Part III, "In an Unquiet World" will never doubt the compassion of the author for human turmoil, bewilderment, and grief. She believes in "the God of all comfort," and every aspect of her life and work is pervaded by her profound relationship with God. She is never without a sense of the presence of her heavenly Father, in whom is her support, her peace, and her renewal."
