It is possible that we are the sum total of our experiences, but we are certainly not fully formed by them. Transformation is a reality. With great energy and jubilance, this book celebrates moments of true virtue, and extracts virtues that can be taken from the seemingly mundane. If every moment is a parable, and every parable has a profound truth, then this book is on the lookout for the profound. Journeying from the deep of \u003cem\u003eWanting\u003c\/em\u003e to a heart that is \u003cem\u003eComing to Come,\u003c\/em\u003e this book observes the lessons of a single life and that of the lives of others, in the aim to learn the important lessons of love, faith and hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Michael Campbell's first selected book of poetry is wonderful to read and a pleasure to experience. In this book, Campbell bravely crafts personal \"nuggets of time and life\". From the moment you read the well-paced, \"\u003cem\u003eWanting\u003c\/em\u003e\" through to the sublimely evocative \"\u003cem\u003eElephant Dance\u003c\/em\u003e\", you are held in a world that is warm, inviting and intelligently observed. This writing is engagingly maverick, technically proficient and celebrates his heritage with pride and energy.
