| book description |

Philip McDonnell has a poet's gift for seeing the extraordinary in the everyday and glimpsing eternity in the present moment. You will find poems that are inspiring and uplifting as well as challenging and provoking. Philip writes with immediacy and passion, whether he's describing humorous or poignant moments in family life, a special wedding, friends past and present or the beauties of creation. He skilfully evokes the atmosphere of places he has visited on holiday and on pilgrimage, from the snowy splendour of the Pyrenees to the windswept shore of Inchydoney, and from monastic peace in Glendalough to sacred silence in Medjugorje. Philip is not afraid to confront the darker side of the world we live in - the cruelty and suffering caused by war, whether in Gaza or Auschwitz, and the ways in which technology is changing society for the worse. However, hope ultimately triumphs and faith shines through in poems that will remain with you long after you have closed the book.
