Strand removed the tape, and She began to speak of a coming age of chaos and collapse in which the world of humankind would be severely chastened so that Her world--the world of Nature--could be renewed. Overwhelmed by the presence of One so fully Other, Strand found that love was the only language that would suffice. Drawing inspiration from Song of Songs and the Bengali mystics Ramprasad and Sri Ramakrishna, he began a series of poems to Ma Kali, the Dark Goddess of India, the words to which often came from the Great Mother Herself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clark Strand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948626748\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948626743\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Monkfish Book Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 4.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Clark Strand","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076891734271,"sku":"9781948626743","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_58fa2ed3-7470-4fae-9f1b-87e1439e3dff.jpg?v=1685467337","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/now-is-the-hour-of-clark-strand-9781948626743","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
