Whether you love poetry or haven't read it since school, The Splash of Words will help you rediscover poetry�s power to startle, challenge and reframe your vision.
Like throwing a pebble into water, a poem causes a �splash of words� whose ripples can transform the way we see the world, ourselves and God. Through thirty selected poems, from the fourteenth century to the present day, Mark Oakley explores poetry�s power to stir our settled ways of viewing the world and faith, shift our perceptions and even transform who we are.
