Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The world is still full of wonder. We've just been too busy to look.'Lovely. approachable. poetic.' - 4 out of 5 stars, Foreword Clarion Reviews'I couldn't put it down. A profound read - and I say that with no hyperbole. It spoke to something missing in me that I cannot verbalize yet.' - Bonnie Lieberman, Mom and School Board PresidentWe move through our days half-awake - rushing past the poppies, skipping the concert, ducking in out of the rain and missing the experience waiting around the corner. And then, every so often, something stops us cold. A lilting ballad. A painting in the museum we almost skipped. A friend who holds fast to joy and grace at the absolute edge of everything. In those moments, we remember what it feels like to be fully, achingly alive.Wonder is a sanctuary for those moments - and an invitation to see them in the middle of our busy, over-scheduled lives.In thirteen lyric essays across four movements, Gary Waddell takes you on a sweeping journey: from a twilight backyard in North Carolina to a Parisian chapel in the rain, from Frida Kahlo's unblinking gaze to a desert sky of breathtaking brilliance, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to a friend's porch at the end of a life well-lived. Along the way, he makes a quietly radical case - that wonder isn't a luxury reserved for grand vistas and rare occasions, but is the very point of it all, available to anyone willing to pay attention.For readers who love Anna Quindlen's A Short Guide to a Happy Life, Ross Gay's The Book of Delights, Haemin Sunim's The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down, and the lyric poetry of Mary Oliver, Wonder is a book to keep, to return to, and to give - to anyone who has everything, or would welcome a reminder to breathe deeply and notice what's in front of them.Wonder awaits. Just look.…
