Description: One of the most engaging voices contemporary spirituality in is that of the Irish poet, Pádraig O'Tuama. This second poetry collection arises out of a decade of his hearing stories of people who have lived through personal and political conflict. These poems tell stories of individuals: their loves and losses, their hope and generosity.
Brief description: Pádraig Ó Tuama lives in Belfast. He is a popular speaker at Greenbelt, leads an annual retreat on Iona, and tours churches, retreat centres, pubs and literary festivals throughout the UK and in the US and Australia.
Review Quotes: 'A shiver still goes through me whenever I hear or read 'The Facts of Life', one of the poems in the collection.'--Jill Keegan "Retreats"
