“Haphazard By Starlight” by Janet Morley

recommended by Dorothy Roberts

​

If you enjoy poetry and are looking for a new angle on Advent to Christmas, this book might be for you. I was introduced to it several years ago and have used it with pleasure every Advent since.

 

There is a poem for each day from Advent to Epiphany, covering many themes associated with the season, but not necessarily by a Christian poet.  Some will be familiar; others not. Some are easier to understand; others more difficult, but the commentary carefully unpicks and explains the meaning linking it to experience.  Each day ends with a personal thought or question to consider.

​

Go on!  Why not give it a go?  You may find you really enjoy it.

The book is available from the Huddersfield Christian Bookshop or online.
