“Great writers are not only masters of language, but masters of soul. Barbara Stahura is one of those rare and precious voices that make you not only kneel before the altar of language, but kneel before the altar of being alive and human.”
—Tama Kieves, best-selling author of This Time I Dance! Creating the Work You Love

“At the heart of these linked essays is the story of a love that blossoms in midlife, only to be tested immediately by a nearly fatal motorcycle accident, a love that proves to be the most powerful force in healing both the author and her injured husband. This recent history confirms Barbara Stahura’s intuition, built up over years of reading and reflection, that our experience of love is the nearest we come to sensing the energy manifest in the myriad forms of this flowing universe. Her insights into what she calls the ‘holy mysteries’ are hard won and movingly told.”
—Scott Russell Sanders, author of A Private History of Awe
