Paperback. Condition: New. Midway through the journey of his life, Dan Beachy-Quick found himself without a path, unsure how to live well. Of Silence and Song follows him through the forest of his experience, on a classical search for meaning in the world and in his particular, quiet life.In essays, fragments, marginalia, images, travel writing, and poetry, Beachy-Quick traces relationships and the identities through which he sees the world. As father and husband. As teacher and student. As citizen and scholar. And as poet and reader, wondering at the potential and limits of literature, and guided by his studies in ancient Greek.Of Silence and Song finds its inferno-and its paradise-in moments both historically vast and nakedly intimate. Our world's disappearing bees, James Eagan Holmes, Columbine, and the persistent, unforgivable crime of slavery-these are the circles of hell Beachy-Quick wanders, but cannot escape. And yet he encounters redemption in the art of Marcel Duchamp, the pressed flowers in Emily Dickinson's Bible, and long walks with his youngest daughter, Iris. "The litany in hell is weeping, weeping," he writes, "but there are other litanies."Curious, earnest, and masterful, Of Silence and Song is an unforgettable exploration of the human soul.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - - Author has exceptional reputation in literary circles, with profiles in publications including the New Yorker, New York Times, and the LA Times- Of Silence and Song formed the basis of Author's work as a Guggenheim fellow- The book is timely, emerging from a reaction to our current media predicament: a response 'to a culture filled with a kind of noise that seems at times to either replace thinking or make thinking impossible,' hence the title- Structure for the text comes from a unique formal experiment, to 'spend one-hundred essays in contemplation-the simple discipline of it, of seeking no way out of the thinking that the form itself demands.'- Similar to A Whaler's Dictionary and Wonderful Investigations, Of Silence and Song will feature special design and construction to echo the elegance of the contents- Given the author's profile, we expect strong endorsements and review coverage for the book.
