On the Way to Jerusalem Farm
A journey through damaged landscapes seeking connection and healing. Carola Luther's On the Way to Jerusalem Farm explores living in a complex world, asking how it lives in us and we in it. This collection moves through scarred landscapes, searching for a lost beloved and a means of continuing.
Three central sequences, 'Letters to Rasool', 'Birthday at Emily Court', and 'The Escape', reveal the heart of this journey. From the search for connection in depleted landscapes to the celebration of life amidst aging residents, and the discovery of beauty in distant seas, Luther's poetry finds a way forward.
- Explores themes of loss, memory, and the natural world.
- Offers solace and reflection through evocative verse.
- Connects personal experiences with broader social issues.
For readers of contemporary poetry seeking thoughtful and evocative verse, Luther's collection offers a path to finding meaning and sharing our complex lives in an interdependent present.
