"Begin here," says Bethany Lee, in her inspirational new collection, Etude for Belonging. "Now is the time for us to take courage." And as you answer this invitation, you will find courage indeed, here among musings on galaxies and trillium, shipwrecks and spinning wheels, here where there is room for broken hearts, for healing, and for hope.

This book takes us on an uncharted course "out where the sea is always/turning into sky" and steadily guides us back to the love at the center, back to the place we all belong, "which is here/which is together."
