A Beautiful Doom - Hardcover

by Clyde Hurlston (Author)

With this fifth book of poetry and prose, aptly titled "A Beautiful Doom," author and poet Clyde Hurlston lets us know that every part of journey matters. Especially the part we often dread to contemplate: the end.

Seemingly closing a chapter on this part of his writing career, the author of such works as "The Sacred Gift Of Fire" and "A Debt Paid In Ink," may be offering readers his most compelling collection yet; just a few years after releasing what some consider his greatest work.

"A Beautiful Doom" is an ink-infused meditation on mortality and the importance of life itself. Taking inspiration from a quote that has stayed with the writer for many years, and structured around three Latin phrases in the vein of the stoic philosophy most widely associated with the former Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius.

Yes, with his latest tome, readers of "A Beautiful Doom" may find themselves hoping this book doesn't mark the end of Clyde Hurlston's writing journey; but instead, a new beginning.
