<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>A rare collection of daring essays about science, the arts, and spirituality</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i><b>The Grand Array</i></b> is a stunning collection of 18 essays by widely acclaimed poet Pattiann Rogers. Written over a span of 25 years, in these essays Rogers daringly lays out the essential unity of science, spirituality, the arts, and our sensual experience of the physical world. With an anecdotal and lyrical style, Rogers celebrates human existence and questions many of our basic concepts about nature, God, and the importance of faith. Praised by everyone from Barry Lopez to Terry Tempest Williams, Rogers has an incredible perspective and finesse with which she weaves a magnificent tapestry of themes.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Will reward curious and open-minded readers with a similarly expanded perspective--one filled with as much reverence for the complicated, contradictory nature of human existence as for the unfathomable sweep of the night sky."-- <b><i>Cold Front Magazine</i></b> <p/>"What a gift! These are remarkable reflections from one of our nation's finest writers. For anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality, art, and nature this book is to be savored like vintage wine--uplifting and entrancing."-- <b>Mary Evelyn Tucker</b> <p/>"Pattiann Rogers is a visionary of reality, perceiving the material world with such intensity of response that impulse, intention, meaning, interconnections beyond the skin of appearances are revealed."-- <b>Denise Levertov</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Pattiann Rogers</b> is the author of more than fifteen books of poetry and prose, including <i>Wayfare</i>, <i>Firekeeper</i>, <i>Generations</i>, and the forthcoming <i>Holy Heathen Rhapsody</i>.
