Description

In her new essay collection, the beloved author of Prodigal Summer moves from one of history's darker moments to present an extended love song to the world we still have. From its opening parable gleaned from recent news about a lost child saved in an astonishing way, the book moves on to consider a world of surprising and hopeful prospects. Small Wonder is a hopeful examination of the people we seem to be, and what we might yet make of ourselves.
