{"product_id":"yearning-for-human-touch-theodore-mcdowell-9781977254207","title":"Yearning for Human Touch: Collected Poems and Stories","description":"Yearning for Human Touch is a collection of poems and stories that explore human touch and intimacy as a healing experience. Mr. McDowell examines the yearning for human relationships and deep connections in response to personal traumas in his life, such as a traumatic brain injury, bipolar disorder, and substance abuse. Emotionally gut-wrenching and haunting, the poems and stories emphasize the impact of these experiences on the poet's identity, family, and spiritual life. The search for intimacy and healing emerges from a deep sense of loneliness, grief, and alienation. At the same time, a theme of human compassion and grace transforms the pain and isolation into hope and reconciliation. In the end, God weaves the poet's suffering, loneliness, and yearning for human touch into a song of love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Theodore McDowell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1977254209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781977254207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Outskirts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"Theodore McDowell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44078750957823,"sku":"9781977254207","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_79882b66-81e3-4699-b937-f3f85527c20a.jpg?v=1685477302","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/yearning-for-human-touch-theodore-mcdowell-9781977254207","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
