See what others are saying:


"Karl Barth’s trip to America towards the end of his life is legendary. Legendary, because of its famous status among Barth fans, but also because of the largely fragmentary character of the accounts given of the trip. Jessica DeCou promises to rectify that latter predicament with her very exciting research project into that trip."


"I want to highlight an exciting opportunity for those interested in Barth Studies. Jessica DeCou has started a Kickstarter campaign to help fund research for a book recounting the story of Barth’s visit to the United States. ... So before catching up on your DET and theoblog reading below, surf on over and donate a $ or two so that we’ll all be sure to get to read this!"
