Description:
Upon the release of Sufjan Stevens' seventh studio album, Carrie & Lowell, two divergent groups found themselves as strange bedfellows- the LGBTQIA+ community and American evangelical Christians. Both were united in praise for Stevens' beautifully melancholic music.




Critically acclaimed as one of the best albums of 2015, the elegiac and intimate record about the death of Sufjan's estranged mother reflects the musician's own paradoxical posture Carrie & Lowell is both sacred and profane, Christian and queer, traditional and progressive, despairing and hopeful.




Theologian and cultural critic Joel Mayward considers Carrie & Lowell as a mystical metamodern memento mori, Sufjan's symphonic (as opposed to systematic) approach to the questions of mortality, sexuality, and God. Fusing critical observations with personal narrative, Mayward examines the unique audience reception of Carrie & Lowell and the questions it raises- in a world of division, how might Stevens' affecting music act as a bridge of love between seemingly irreconcilable communities? As Carrie & Lowell reminds us of the painful truth that "we're all gonna die," perhaps it also offers a glimpse of transcendence and hope on this side of death.

Very interesting and detailed book.
Format: Paperback
This is the first book I purchased on this subject. Certainly not a simplistic book. It took me awhile to get used to his style of writing, and he introduces things I'd never heard of. I really had to pay attention. Most of what he refers to and talks about is based in Europe, so that was a surprise, and a pleasant one. I wish this country didn't appear to be ashamed of these subjects. I found that were the other lives the people, including the government are open to what he does, consulting with nature elementals. While I was reading this in my backyard, under my only tree (the city took down the other one), I experienced some insights of my own regarding man's interaction with nature. Who knows, maybe I will write my own book on that one day!

Awakening to reality of other realms
Format: Paperback
It has been a long-time of mankind's understanding of science that we have forgotten the things our ancient ancestors knew about our planet. There are other species of life here and there is an order that we don't control directly. We can work with the spirits of nature to create balance and plenty for our existence and theirs, or we can choose to ignore and continue on our path of Earth's destruction, and ultimately this also mean's our own demise. Here is a way to awaken to the elements of Nature and how we are supposed to work together.

An enjoyable read which correlates with the books of Dick van Romunde and Rudolph Steiner. Some interesting exercises to try on one’s own to nave their own experiences. I also enjoyed his art work.
