Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
Iona Is this place really nearer to God? Is the wall thin between our whispers And his listening? I only know The world grows less and less – Here what matters is conquering the wind, Coming home dryshod, getting the fire lit. I am not sure whether there is no time here Or more time, whether the light is stronger Or just easier to see. That is why I keep returning, thirsty, to see this place That is older than my understanding, Younger than my broken spirit. © Kenneth Steven

Seller: Crappy Old Books, Barry, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Good. Iona by Kenneth C. Steven is a lyrical and deeply moving portrait of one of Scotland?s most sacred and storied islands. Blending history, myth, and personal reflection, Steven captures the spirit of Iona through the eyes of those who have lived there, journeyed there, and been forever changed by its quiet power. With poetic prose and a profound sense of place, he explores the island?s ancient roots, its enduring Christian heritage, and its timeless beauty. Iona is more than a travelogue ? it?s a meditation on faith, memory, and the thin places where heaven and earth seem to meet. Seller Inventory # 2759
