"The soul is so precious, full of joy and wonder, and the pain that comes from love. These poems touch the soul, reminding each of us what it means to be fully alive, to be surrounded by what is sacred. Allow them to reach under your skin, to where mystery is born into meaning." --Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee Ph.D., Sufi teacher and author of Prayer of the Heart "Mark Nepo's poems in his new book, Reduced to Joy, reduce me first to grateful silence, and then to tears, and then to laughter, and then to praise. He joins a long tradition of truth-seeking, wild-hearted poets--Rumi, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, Mary Oliver--and deserves a place in the center of the circle with them." --Elizabeth Lesser, Cofounder, Omega Institute, author of Broken Open: How Difficult Times Can Help Us Grow "Oh! What a marvelous book. Mark Nepo's generous, vast poems restore readers to joy even before we finish reading them -- musing upon single lines, images, stanzas -- we feel it rising up again, that precious sense of YES. And completing them -- we feel the rich trove of thinking and living so heartened and restored." --Naomi Shihab Nye, author of Words Under the Words, "The soul is so precious, full of joy and wonder, and the pain that comes from love.

(Running the Table) Mark Nepo has a great heart. His poems are good company." -Coleman Barks "The soul is so precious, full of joy and wonder, and the pain that comes from love.

If you already know Mark's work, you won't want to miss this collection. And if you have never had the pleasure of experiencing the world through Mark Nepo's eyes, begin with Reduced to Joy." -Gayatri Naraine, author of Something Beyond Greatness, "The soul is so precious, full of joy and wonder, and the pain that comes from love.

Synopsis
Mark Nepo is emerging as one of the truly significant writers and thinkers of today. Nepo has a singular way of distilling great truths down to their essence. Moreover, during his cancer journey, Nepo relied on the power of expression and the writing process to keep him tethered to life. In Reduced to Joy, Mark Nepo explores the places where pain and joy are stitched to resilience, uncovering them with deep wisdom, poetic passages and personal revelations. Nepo reminds us all of the secret and sacred places within, forgotten in the noise and chatter of our busy distracted 21st Century lives. Reduced to Joy is a lesson in stillness, in standing in the mystery and, above all, in the work of love., Mark Nepo is emerging as one of the truly significant writers and thinkers of today.

Nepo has a singular way of distilling great truths down to their essence. Moreover, Nepo attributes his comeback from cancer to the power of the writing process and not once but twice. In Reduced to Joy, Mark Nepo gets to the stuff of happiness with deep wisdom, poetic passages and personal revelations. Nepo reminds us all of the secret and sacred places within, forgotten in the noise and chatter of our busy distracted 21st Century lives. Reduced to Joy is a lesson in stillness, in standing in the mystery and, above all, in the work of love. From the book: "Often, what keeps us from joy is the menacing assumption that life is happening other than where we are. So we are always leaving, running from or running to. All the while, joy rises like summer wind, waiting for us to grow in the open, large as willows it can sing through. Yet failing to grow in the open, we can be worn to it. Though working with what we're given till it wears us through seems to be the grace we resist. Like everyone, I have spent so much of my life fearing pain that I have seldom felt things all the way through. And falling through more than working through, I've learned that if we can stay true to our experience and to each other, and face the spirit that experience and love carry, we will eventually be reduced to joy. Like cliffs worn to their beauty by the pounding of the sea, if we can hold each other up, all that will be left will be wonder and joy."

- p***f (322)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThis book is in new condition. I was impressed with it. Thought I was going to get me a book that was highlighted, underlinned, and written in inked some one's name. This one was clean. I can read it ok, yet, I really do take very large print books, and they did not have a picture of this book. I would like to have one of these books in Larger print for me to read it well. Thanks Paul
