Publisher's Synopsis
The Singing Man: A Book of Songs and Shadows is a collection of poetry and songs written by Josephine Preston Peabody. The book is divided into two parts; the first part consists of poems that explore themes of nature, love, and spirituality, while the second part features songs that tell stories of mythical figures and their adventures. The poems in the first part are characterized by their lyrical quality and use of vivid imagery, while the songs in the second part are marked by their musicality and use of rhyme and repetition. Throughout the book, Peabody's writing is imbued with a sense of wonder and mystery, as she explores the beauty and complexity of the natural world and the human experience.
