The poems in The Tree of Partial Knowledge explore how we move between hope and fear, faith and doubt, awe and our daily lives, sometimes scurrying, sometimes stumbling, sometimes just looking sharp, trying to keep our dignity and balance. With small portraits and reflections, with scenes of lived experience-children eating dinner, a gracious woman observed in line at the cash register, a man blowing out candles - the poems show how we persevere, even as the built and the natural show us their gaps and threats, or, for some their small rewards. These poems recollect that once we had a tree of all knowledge in a garden, now we have only bits and facts and stories to guide us and reveal the quiet grace afforded us in the everyday.
