Description: DUST AND LIGHT presents a montage of 36 poems based on the life and writings of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the Jesuit priest, paleontologist, philosopher, and author who died in 1955. The poems dramatize Teilhard?s lifelong endeavor to reconcile religion and science, as well as his conflict with the Catholic Church over his ideas and his own personal quest for justice, order, and love.
