description: In this collection, poet Bruce Beasley explores the nature of creation and the relationship between the creator and creature in all its senses. Moving from fear and distrust of creation to acceptance and rejoicing, this volume imagines createdness as a split—between the soul and God, between one person and another—and works toward a joyous reconciliation of that split.Rich in spiritual and lyrical power, Beasley’s vision of the creation brings new meaning to the relationship between the human and divine condition in all of its immense complexity.
