The result is a book that moves fluidly between nature and myth, intimacy and absence, the everyday and the eternal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom shorelines and skies to islands, saints, and shadows, these poems chart the fragile drift of living in a world that refuses to stay still. A dragonfly's shimmer, a cat's wandering absence, a prophet's voice breaking into the present-each moment is caught and held, luminous against the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt once lyrical and searching, \u003ci\u003eThe Floating World\u003c\/i\u003e is a meditation on impermanence: on love that flickers and fades, on faith that both steadies and unsettles, on beauty glimpsed and gone. With musical precision and haunting imagery, George writes of what vanishes and what lingers, offering a poetry that becomes, finally, a form of companionship-an invitation to pause, to listen, and to remember what would otherwise be lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Seraphim George\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798999887849\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Quo Vadis Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Seraphim George","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440568086783,"sku":"9798999887849","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6ab38546-4655-4204-a8cd-acd3676ac75b.jpg?v=1777183305","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-floating-world-seraphim-george-9798999887849","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
