Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize "Thought-provoking, poignant, brutal, amusing, and always beautiful."--Elizabeth Berg
Hurrying through errands, attending a dying mother, helping her own child down the playground slide, the speaker in these poems wonders: what is the difference between the self and the soul? The secular and the sacred? Where is the kingdom of heaven? And how does one live in Ordinary Time--during those apparently unmiraculous periods of everyday trouble and joy?Buy The Kingdom of Ordinary Time: Poems by Marie Howe from Australia's Online Independent Bookstore, BooksDirect.
