    Another in the popular series of Joy Cowley's prayers and Meditations. Psalms Down-under, like the biblical Psalms, are not the stuff of comfortable piety. They sing beatitudes for all life has to offer: pain and joy, doubt and faith, turbulance and peace, in the immediacy of 'down-under' speech.

    Commonalities become blinding insights as Cowley sees the 'shimmering of the divine' in everything from detergent bubbles to mountain snows.

    The subjects range from the paschal mysteries to the ordinary 'Bumps' in our lives.

    These contemporary 'metaphysical' prayer-poems go straight to our heart and quicken the soul: "Listen God/I just had a nasty bump/and now I want to know the reason why." Dame Sister Pauline Engel RSM

    First published 1996.

    Joy Cowley and Husband Terry Cole combine word and photographic image to bring another masterpiece in the tradtion of Aotearoa Psalms, Songs for the Road, and Come and See
