Publisher's Synopsis
If you have you ever wished to probe the mind of a wandering troubadour, chart the peaks and valleys of a struggling artist, and ride the roller coaster of emotions, realizations, and spiritual breakthroughs of a seeker who refuses to give up the search, then this book is a must have. Stuart McNair is an accomplished touring songwriter, and this collection represents his personal reflections while on tour across the US and Europe. It includes 58 poems and 26 drawings created on site in locations like New Orleans, Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, and Berlin, as well as the wilds of Appalachia, Louisiana swamps, and forgotten backroads. This compilation, while celebrating people, nature, and various unique places, carries a thread of spiritual development. It asks many of life's most pressing questions, and finds different answers at different times. It doesn't shy away from depicting the lows or the highs, and takes the reader along as an intimate companion on an epic journey.
