The Clearing: A Journey Through Grief, Love, and Renewal is a powerful and moving collection of poems that explores the complexities of grief, love, and the search for meaning in the wake of loss. Allison Adair's writing is raw, honest, and deeply resonant, and her poems offer a unique and often profound perspective on the human experience.

Adair's journey begins with the sudden death of her husband, and the poems that follow trace her path through the depths of grief and despair. She writes of the overwhelming pain of loss, the longing for what is gone, and the struggle to find meaning in a world that has been shattered.

But even in the darkest of times, Adair finds moments of hope and renewal. She writes of the beauty of nature, the power of love, and the resilience of the human spirit. Through her poems, she invites us to join her on her journey, to share in her pain and her joy, and to find our own path through the challenges of life.

The Clearing is a deeply personal and profoundly moving collection of poems. Adair's writing is spare and evocative, and her words cut straight to the heart. This is a book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
