Habitation Of Wonder
$38.00
Habitation of Wonder is an offering of poems that travels the intersection of the natural landscape and the landscape of spirit. Here, the moon is a “”white comma / in the breath of space.”” Crocuses are “”ephemeral prophets, first of the sun’s spring projects.”” The ocean is “”a vast / perpetual sacrifice on the altar / of the shell-glittering shore.”” The collection opens with “”Genesis,”” a reimagining of the creation story with song as the divine instrument of creation. Five themed sections flow from “”Genesis”” like a musical thread, investigating the material elements from which we originate and in which we take shelter, as well as the gifts of language and faith, which make us more than merely “”a constellation of salts.”” In its own way, each poem invites the reader to “”tenant beauty””–as well as to tenant uncertainty. When beauty and uncertainty collide, they spark wonder. As these poems suggest, wonder is simply another name for the world in which we live–and the world that lives in us.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
