This is an absolutely wonderful book; a poetic faith-journey memoir. While I have not been to Greece and am not Eastern Orthodox, so much of this book resonates strongly with my own faith-journey.

Cairns is at his best in this collection when the poems take a turn outward. I found there is an uneven oscillation between meditations on the theological, almost a palms out stance to the transcendental, and odes to the everyday. The odes I could have done without.

ADVENT This book of Advent and Christmas meditations is a gift of rare depth and beauty.Christmas is the season most difficult to grasp and understand in all its spiritual richness. The sentimentality and commercialism that dominate the season tend to obscure the profound mystery at its heart: the Incarnation.

Scott Cairns is a very good poet, whom I really enjoy. For whatever reason, this collection remains opaque to me. Perhaps I am not Orthodox enough.
