Remember: New and Selected Poems

0/5 ( ratings)

Remember is many things. It is the story of the sensitive son of an Irish-Italian Catholic family who pursues a career in bioengineering and the sciences—only to enter the church. It is the story of a man who, tied by solemn vows to God, finds intimate love something he needs to be whole, and something he is not called to sacrifice. It is the story of a man battling depression who finds peace and meaning through poetry.

Remember is the story of Jim Gunshinan.

Gunshinan’s poems resonate among those who struggle to adhere to institutional religion, seeking newer, less restrictive spiritual paths. His thoughtful, evocative verses remind us of each generation’s need to find new words to keep religion fresh and relevant.

At their heart, however, the poems of Remember are soul-searching works drawn from a complicated, ever-changing life. In his search for meaning, Gunshinan moves from childhood memories to personal questions of faith and love.

Remember is Gunshinan’s third collection of poetry, following on the heels of What the Body Wants, and Flamenco at the Thirsty Bear. Through his search for truth and healing, Gunshinan offers insight into his deepest being. Looking in, we cannot fail to see ourselves reflected in his words.

Language: English

Pages: 68

Format: Kindle Edition
