Light and Shadow, Paperback / softback Book

Light and Shadow Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

For all people, life passes through and around us in light and shadow.

We enjoy moments of joy and comfort, when no sooner we're faced with upset, disappointment, sometimes even tragedy.

The art we create, our music, literature, painting, theatre and the rest, reflects this.

Think of Shakespeare, or Rembrandt, or Beethoven, or your favorite lifetime film.

Can we appreciate moments of joy, without having known sadness?

We see it in nature. The brilliant colors of birth, the dimmer struggles for survival, the darker shades of decay and dying.

A bleak winter's day, a rainy afternoon in March, a sunny May morning.

I always attempt to capture both light and shadow when I write, in my novels, stories, plays, and in my poems.

It's an attempt to show respect, I think, for the human condition.
