About
An anthology of poetry and nonfiction exploring the presence and significance of ritual
Grinding beans for a morning cup of coffee, taking your medicine, or reciting a prayer-rituals are the clockwork meditations in our lives. The writers of this anthology explore what it means to participate in this act, which can range from a tuned-out meditation or a deeply thoughtful engagement with your body and mind.
Whether sacred or secular, the stories in Rituals provide a point of connection to the world beyond us and invite us deeper into ourselves: a poem about greeting an acquaintance at Target while dealing with grief, or an essay about taking testosterone every Sunday. When we take a step back and examine our lives, we find that our existence is woven together by rituals: the simple acts that ground us through the constant flux of being human.
