Sky Songs : Meditations on Loving a Broken World, Paperback / softback Book

Sky Songs : Meditations on Loving a Broken World Paperback / softback

Part of the American Lives series

Paperback / softback

Description

Sky Songs is a collection of essays that takes inspiration from the ancient seabed in which Jennifer Sinor lives, an elemental landscape that reminds her that our lives are shaped by all that has passed through.

Beginning with the conception of her first son, which coincided with the tragic death of her uncle on an Alaskan river, and ending a decade later in the Himalayan home of the Dalai Lama, Sinor offers a lyric exploration of language, love, and the promise inherent in the stories we tell: to remember. In these essays, Sinor takes us through the mountains, deserts, and rivers of the West and along with her on her travels to India.

Whether rooted in the dailiness of raising children or practicing yoga, Sinor searches for the places where grace resides.

The essays often weave several narrative threads together in the search for relationship and connection.

A mother, writer, teacher, and yoga instructor, Sinor ultimately tackles the most difficult question: how to live in a broken world filled with both suffering and grace.
