TERRY TEMPEST WILLIAMS
Finding Beauty in a Broken
World
Wednesday, December 3 at 7:00 PM In
her most original, provocative and eloquently moving book since
Refuge, Terry Tempest Williams gives us a luminous chronicle of
finding beauty in a broken world.
Always an impassioned and far-sighted advocate for a just relationship
between the natural world and humankind, Williams has broadened her
concerns over the past several years to include a
reconfiguration of family and community in her search for a deeper
understanding of what it means to be human in an era of physical and
spiritual fragmentation.
