Discover How Hopkins's Spiritual Life and Vision Can Enlighten Your
Own "Poetry and art and music seize upon the human experience in
ways that reveal new possibilities of intimacy with the Divine. In
the way they reach out and grab us by the heart at unexpected
times, they reaffirm that the Holy will meet us when it
chooses.…" —from the Preface by Rev. Thomas Ryan, CSP Gerard
Manley Hopkins, Christian mystical poet, is beloved for his use of
fresh language and startling metaphors to describe the world around
him. Beneath the surface of this lovely verse lies a searching
soul, wrestling with and yearning for God. Hopkins writes from a
Christian background, and yet his themes speak to people of all
faiths who seek a deeper understanding of the presence of God in
all of life. This beautiful sampling of Hopkins's poetry offers a
glimpse into his unique spiritual vision that continues to inspire
readers throughout the world. The poems unite his two devotions,
presenting mystical images of Christ in the natural world, which
serve as a window through which you might also begin to see the
Divine Presence in the world around you.
