Inhaltsangabe

BEAUTY Sometimes unexpectedly, unbidden, Beauty comes. Not a downpouring of doves, Not a Venus, sheathed in an ivory shell, Not even the lenses of Stonehenge in its season— Stones aligned to catch the sun as it moves Mystically, majestically, through holes And crevices. Not even these spectaculars— The light against the dark, the white ecstatic, Stars falling and setting the sky on fire— Take possession, or let the moment take The horse high over the hedge with an unseen rider. It comes when least expected, when the dark Opens a crack to let light filter in— A word, a look, a sudden realization. — David George Step into the timeless world of the poetry of ideas and humanity, art and nature, history and beauty.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

In my younger days I worked as a farm laborer, house painter, janitor, and carpenter's helper. I fell in love with theater and worked for many years as an actor and director. That love competed with another: foreign languages and international travel. With many stops and starts I eventually completed my Ph.D. and became a college professor. Though teaching was my true calling, I also published scholarly books and essays, as well as literary translations. In my spare time I wrote short stories, some of which appear in Stories by Three Brothers. Now retired, I'm working on my first novel. I've been married for 30+ years and that union produced my pride and joy, a son, whose brilliance keeps the darkness at bay.
