The House of Belonging by David Whyte

5.0

What an elegant, awe-inspiring book of poetry. Whyte explores the philosophical concepts of home, aloneness, nature, and connectedness. I recommend this book to the lonely as well as the joyfully alone. It teaches the meaning and necessity of solitude. It showed me how solitude can best lead to joyful relationships and overall connections with the natural world. Whyte is using his poetry here as a vessel to understand himself and his surroundings. In turn, his poetry has inspired me (and I'm sure others as well) to do the same.
