From the horrors of the concentration camps to the beautiful hills of the poet's home country, this collection explores the meanings and unusual consolations to be found in the daily routines of life and death. Whether preparing a prisoner's corpse for incineration or contemplating a well cut lawn, the poems are both thought provoking and poignant.

There is a deep spiritual sensitivity evident throughout this poetry collection that seeks a human connection with the divine and a meaning to suffering as we transcend the sacred mystery that permeates all life.

This is the second collection from a poet who continues to explore the varying shades of darkness that make up the light.
