About the Book
The Heart of It All is a tender story hidden in poetry, prose, and pictures. Lori Goff spells out the joys and sorrows of everyday living using the landscape of the natural world as a setting. From "The Changing Shore" (where all is tattered and shattered) to a place where new treasures await discovery, this book travels the path and morning is reborn-from London to Cologne to Appalachia through lyrical language, metaphor, and sensory engagement. The text is highlighted with her personal photographs.
The book is divided into ten sections: Lessons of the Sea, Scenic Solitude, On Love, A Fairy Tale, Seasons of Change, Discovery, Remembering, The Heart of It All, Our Best Friends, Wrapping Up Loose Ends.Lori has included personal photographs of water scenes, flowers, mushrooms, an angel, an eagle, and the mountains.
