It's the sort of praise every first time author dreams of.

St. Paul author John Reimringer's first full book "Vestments" has been called out by Publishers Weekly as one of the best books of 2010.

Published by the Twin Cities own Milkweed Editions, the book is about "a wayward yet devout young priest who struggles to reconcile his faith with longings of the flesh."

A former journalist and newspaper editor, Reimringer teaches at Augsburg College, and lives with his wife, the poet Katrina Vandenberg, in St. Paul.
