At the request of readers globally, Whyte returns with fifty-two short, elegant meditations on a single word ranging from 'Anxiety' to 'Body', 'Freedom', 'Shame' and 'Moon'. He embraces their nuances, amplitudes and depths, and, in doing so, confronts realities that many of us would spend a lifetime trying senselessly to avoid.In Consolations II, anxiety might be more mercifully understood as the preparation for being hurt, fixed beliefs are recognised as the very places where we do not wish to understand, guilt is a friend compassionately waiting for us to catch up and routine becomes a form of ritual and worship. Each piece in this life-affirming book is an invitation to slow down, shift our perspective and find comfort. In these pages, Whyte explores the full constellation of human experience.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 220mmItem Length: 144mmAuthor: David WhyteGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualitySubtitle: The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday WordsItem Width: 33mmItem Weight: 398gTopic: Language & ReferenceRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
