"She used to be a rumor. She used to be the one not to be named. We listened so hard at the edges of the conversation to hear anything-any detail, any dropped syllable. But thanks to the work of the visionary writers and editors who crafted Dove Song the Mormon concept of a Heavenly Mother now has so much presence! So many words! May we never lose her again." -Joanna Brooks Dove Song is an anthology of poetry and art centered on the Mormon concept of Heavenly Mother. It includes 138 poems from 80 poets and artists from the early church, to the late 20th Century to today."Dove Song is unique in the canon of Mormon literature. And uniquely important. Not only is it a work of fine art, a carefully arranged series of poems that the poets have used their finest skill and training to create, but it is a work of history, a work of inspiration, and a sacred record of many individuals' spiritual quest for additional revealed knowledge about Mother in Heaven." -Susan Elizabeth Howe"This anthology is a shattering summary of poetic revelation, feminist theology, and Mormon history about our Mother God.Over seventy poets speak across time from 1844-2017, describing their visions and yearnings for the divine feminine, like soul mates through the veil. They begin in 1844 with W.W. Phelps, Eliza R. Snow, and Lula Green Richards in 1899, then disappear from the fin de siè·cle to the 1970s when Carol Lynn Pearson and Linda Sillitoe sing our Mother back. Like holy scribes, these poets persist, wondering and writing in the wilderness, seeking a promised land where God is home."-Maxine Hanks
Blythe Marston was widowed at 28, nine years and four children after she and her high school sweetheart had married. She'd had the perfect life: husband, marriage, kids, house, in-laws, parents, friends, health. Until the cops showed up and told her a drunk driver had taken it all away from her.As the condolences drifted away and she started putting herself back together, only one man stayed with her to guide her to her independence: Phineas Marston, her father-in-law. Six years after her husband's death, she's still raising her kids, gotten an education and the most unlikely career, and learned how to be happy again.But not alone. Never alone. There has never been anything between Blythe and Finn, no spark, no desire, no thought of anything. Her dead husband binds them and Finn grieved along with her. There has never been anything more than that between them--except kid drama, school events, family dinners, conversations, opinions, arguments, celebrations, work time, chores, advice, and the dozens and dozens of cookies she bakes for him to take to his office on the holidays.There's nothing between them.Nothing at all.
Neither Lydia Charbonneau nor Jack Blackwood thinks it's a good idea to get involved, but one handshake and one very short conversation have them making plans for a weekend romp. She's a concert pianist and music professor from the University of Kansas, in New York to audition for a position at Juilliard. He's an uncouth bond trader and accidental CEO who likes meaningless sex (lots of it), Big Macs, and Dumb and Dumber. They have nothing in common-until one of Jack's ex-lovers nearly kills them both.
