Alyosha - Paperback

by Daniel Gustafsson (Author)

These are poems of innocence and repentance, of ecstasy and vocation. Against a rich natural and cultural backdrop, the poems explore the costs and rewards of transcendence. Drawing above all on the solace and inspiration of beauty, this collection issues a call to creative stewardship - of life, of land, and of language.
