Wrestling With Freedom: Poetic Essays on Facing Our Collective Shadow

“Fierce, evocative, piercing and vulnerable, tender, beautiful and revelatory ...It completely drew me in. ... An exquisite anthem and clarion call.”—Karen O’Brien

In a time when our most established institutions are being ripped to pieces, revealing rampant corruption and destroying our trust in all that’s familiar, it’s hard not to wonder what in the human soul makes it capable of producing such malevolence and dysfunction—and whether we are forever doomed to be its captives.

In this series of poetic essays, author Sarah McCrum, known for her grounded, practical spirituality, ventures into the darkest, most challenging depths of our world’s collective shadow and faces head-on the conflicting thoughts and emotions that well up in us when faced with human beings’ repeated choices to hurt, lie, steal and devastate.

One question returns with insistence: Do we have within us the power to change?

Courageous, intimate and raw, Wrestling With Freedom deftly expresses the struggles of living consciously in dark times and tunes us to that elusive inner voice promising us a more hopeful tomorrow. It’s a book that will touch deeply, resonating with all who have felt their own dreams shipwrecked upon the jagged realities of our present world.
