Bøker av Christopher Keller

The Great Room 2012 - 2022 The Great Room 2012 - 2022 is the ongoing collection of autobiographical poems by Christopher. His is another book of poems with an unorthodox presentation. Clarity of insight and the path of an authentic life are here with the inclusion of loss and quiverings of love. The voice in this collection finds a way of showing an ongoing learning of how to expel the earth for the spirit. Christopher's eighth book is the work of an artist. This is a book and testament to the commitment to journeys without destination. Surprising, sadnesses, and stirrings of love, the poems in The Great Room are delivered in a straightforward voice unafraid of what they reveal.

First sensations are born out of darkness. They are promises dispersed into the framework of what we hold sacred. The Great Room 2003-2011 is a gathering of these first encounters, and the search to illuminate the psyche of the spirit using a small Montana town as the fixed point. This collection of poems, folktales and parables pass through the lens of the Yellowstone River waters, Crazy Mountain Range as well as the people living among alfalfa and wheat fields. "I want every word of mine to know there is no way back," Christopher reveals, and here marks his journey into the interwoven spirit and earth of a place.

"I can't do this from a physical level anymore... but I will always be with you." And the music is always with us, resurrecting, inexplicably present in distant earphones, as the universe arriving between piano notes. A pocket passport, with parallel texts in English, German, Croatian, Lithuanian, Bengali, Spanish, Russian.
