Synopsis

Poet Edward A. Dougherty begins a spiritual journey in House, World, Heaven and shows us the landscape of contemporary small-town America. In the darkness of a winter morning, he delivers “the day’s cold news” — the grind of poverty, the wreckage of human relationships, the loneliness of hidden suffering. “So much anger. Resentment,” he writes, citing Saint Augustine, “is a metal poker fired red-hot in the heart, / To scorch another you must first wound yourself.” Yet the same poem offers a radically different dawning: “in her beautiful hands / my love took oranges, sliced them / to reveal their sectioned dawns.” The poem asks us, “What is it you need to begin healing?”


—Bart White, author, The Art of Restoration and Your Session is About to Time Out
