More to Keep Us Warm ebook
Both chronicle and confrontation, the poems of Jacob Scheiers debut work out and through notions of loss. As the death of a young mans mother instigates and informs these investigations, the realities of romantic failures become inextricably connected, and in the process More to Keep Us Warm maps the limitations, and breaking points, of the human heart. Questioning how and why we fall in and out of love becomes the collections haunting refrain. At the same time, Scheiers poems mourn the absence of both religious and cultural identity. Facing the painful and confusing losses of his life, the support of the only tradition the writer knows an atheist, socialist upbringing proves unsatisfying. In response, More to Keep Us Warm explores the formation of a new, complex sense of self as inherited belief systems fail. With humour, sardonic wit, and conversational charm, this search engages and struggles with JudeoChristian tradition to become an intimate meditation on the nature of God in a secular world.
