As our global discourse continues to be dominated by border walls,
white nationalism, sexual assault, and autocratic leaders, many of
us find our basic human values under constant attack. Deep Beauty
is one collective attempt to counteract this discourse. The essays
presented herein offer curious and thoughtful inquiries into
experiences of wonder and beauty through the eyes of a diverse
group of beholders, at a time when such considerations are often
lacking from public discourse. These writers help create an
emotional and psychological space for us to meditate on how peace,
safety, compassion, and dignity are integral to a fulfilled and
fulfilling life. These essays examine beauty from a number of
different perspectives, including the arts, culture and
counter-culture, the physical world (from our individual bodies to
our embattled planet), successes and failures, remoteness, and
spirituality. This collection is perfect for students of writing
and philosophy—and for anybody who needs a moment of respite from
the chaos exploding in the world around us. Learn more at
