and again i heard the stars - Paperback

by Christie Towers (Author)

Is it the divine, earthly desire, or both commingling? Through sinuous lyrical syntax that interweaves Hildegard's own words and a 13th century manual for female anchoresses, Towers grows a nuanced investigation of the ecstatic, a burning inquiry into how the sacred can be heard in all of us, and a call to pour out thy heart like water.
