And in turn we've come to not expect it elsewhere: in the tragic or mundane. This essay collection challenges this categorization of wonder, light, and beauty. Fourteen authors share their experiences of finding light in unexpected places. In a disaster, on a dreary morning commute. In squawking gulls, aging bodies, and seeing the way a friend signs his name. Wherever you are, whatever thoughts might be racing through your mind, light is available. It might be just around the corner.\nTable of Contents\nIntroduction\nCANDLES IN THE SNOW\nKristin Procter, Snow and Bones\nMaria Jerinic, My Anti-Vegas\nAlaina Isbouts, The First Snow\nAmanda Nevada DeMel, Ice Petal Flowers\nHIDDEN LIGHT IN FAMOUS EVENTS\nWorld Trade Center Attack, New York, 11 September 2001\nErik Pihel, Toward Light\nMurder of James Foley, Raqqa, 19 August 2014\nEmily Skelding, Long Distance Loss\nMexico City Earthquake, Mexico City, 19 September 2017\nLigia de Wit, The Heart of the City\nNorthern California Wildfires, Sonoma, 8 October 2017\nFran Braga Meininger, As the World We Knew Burned\nTHE WONDER OF THE ORDINARY\nToti O'Brien, Beautiful Bones\nMarcy Darin, Ode to an Expressway Egret\nLaura Valdez-Pagliaro, Two but Not Two\nCeleste Snowber, Gull Woman\nWes Choc, Fore or Aft?\nUNTETHERED\nBeth Rosenberg, Untethered\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 099969300X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.099969300X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Pihel, Erik|Jerinic, Maria|Procter, Kristin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
