At the Edge of the Body
At the Edge of the Body is a gathering of poems on meditation and religious longing, the difficulty of grasping the idea of our own deaths, and the spirit trapped in the body, longing to get out. Showing a dazzling combination of wit, accessibility, and insight into the human condition, Jong has moved into territory beyond the earthly realms.
