Overview

The December sky is dense with constellations--the Great Bear, the Little Dipper with its North Star, Cassiopeia, Orion, Gemini--whose figures in Greek, Arabic, Norse, and Native myths walk the sparkling Spirit Path above our heads. Among them flows a caravan of multicolored jewels: stars, star clusters, planets, vivid nebulae, Magellanic Clouds, and other galaxies like our own Milky Way. Where are they all going, and we with them? To the black hole at the center of our galaxy, through a forest of Dark Matter, to a quantum physics oblivion; to Bethlehem?

""Kent Gramm's December is a soulful invitation to us all to step out under the crisp, cold, night sky, for there are galaxies and wonders to behold. December is a triumph of starry verse, a rich and lyrical read for all who need a reminder to pause, look up, and marvel at the mysteries of this thrilling and thorny universe."" --Courtney Ellis, author of Weathering Change: Seeking Peace Amid Life's Tough Transitions
