Description
Poetry, our most ancient form of prayer, is a necessary medicine for our times: a companion through difficulty; a guide when we are lost; a salve when we are wounded; and a conduit to an inner source of joy, freedom, and insight. Through poetry, the unspeakable can be spoken, the unendurable endured, and the miraculous shared. Whether you are a lover of poetry or have yet to discover its power, Rosen offers a new way to experience a poem. She encourages you to receive the poem as a teacher, friend and tranformative substance, which can align every level of your being.
In an uncertain world, Saved by a Poem is an emphatic call to cultivate the ever-renewable resources of the heart. Weaving teaching, story, verse, and memoir, Rosen guides you to find a poem that speaks to you so you can take it into your life and become a voice for its wisdom in the world. The cello music of Jami Sieber interweaves the chapters and poems. Additional material features the voices of well-known authors reading a favorite poem and discussing its personal significance: Joan Borysenko, Andrew Harvey, Jane Hirshfield, Marie Howe, Grace Yi-Nan Howe, Robert Holden, Stanley Kunitz, Elizabeth Lesser, Thomas Moore, Christiane Northrup, Cheryl Richardson, Kim Rosen, and Geneen Roth.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"I read and loved Saved by a poem 14 years ago in print form. Now, with Kim's gorgeous voicing of her prose mingled with the great poetry that inspired her, and the exquisitely sensitive accompaniment of Jami Sieber's electric cello, the work resonates with even greater depth. I don't know how Kim packs so much emotion and tenderness into every syllable...but she does, revealing new layers of meaning to poems I thought I knew well. It was an inspiring experience to read her book with my eyes over a decade ago. It is a transformative experience to listen to it now." - Alison Luterman, author of In the Time of Great Fires and Desire Zoo
