Greater Things Than These
0 - Default Title
Description
laying in the dark on the chapel floor. In this incandescent debut collection,
Clayton James Hester writes with the hunger of a mystic and the heartbreak
of a lover unmoored. These poems are not polite. They weep, ache, yearn,
praise, and burn. They trace the sacred and profane in the aftermath of love,
the marrow-deep ache of desire, the ghost of God, and the body as both
altar and battlefield.
Raised on a Missouri farm and trained as a journalist, Hester fuses devotional
cadence with raw emotional maximalism. He writes toward the invisible, the
forbidden, the abandoned-inviting the reader to a place where vulnerability
becomes holy and grief becomes song.
This is not a collection for the dispassionate. It is a love letter to shattered
souls and everything that shatters them
