Sophfronia Scott Unisex Multicolor Love's Long Line Paperback Book
Sophfronia Scott
Sophfronia Scott turns an unflinching eye on her life to deliver a poignant collection of essays ruminating on faith, motherhood, race, and the search for meaningful connection in an increasingly disconnected world. InLoves Long Line, Scott contemplates what her son taught her about grief after the shootings at his school, Sandy Hook Elementary how a walk with Lena Horne became a remembrance of love for Scotts illiterate and difficult steelworker father the unexpected heartache of being a substitute school bus driver and the satisfying fantasy of paying off a mortgage. Scotts road is also a spiritual journey ignited by an exploration of her first name, the wonder of her physical being, and coming to understand why her soul must dance likeSaturday Night Fevers Tony Manero. Inspired by Annie Dillards observation inHoly the Firmthat we all "reel out loves long line alone ... like a live wire loosed in space to longing and grief everlasting," Scotts essays acknowledge the loneliness, longing, and grief exacted by a fearless engagement with the everyday world. But she shows that by holding the line, there is an abundance of joy and forgiveness and grace to be had as well. | Sophfronia Scott Love's Long Line Paperback Book
