Be Earth Now

“In Rainer Maria Rilkes seminal collection of poetry, The Book of Hours: Love Poems to God, the great twentieth-century poet explores the nature ofand his relationship toGod through divinely received prayers. Nearly twenty-five years ago, Anita Barrows, an award-winning poet and translator, and Joanna Macy, a Buddhist scholar and eco-philosopher, collaborated to translate this collection. Now, on the new album Be Earth Now, Anita and Joanna recite a selection of these poems. Through their potent recitations, they bring the spirit of Rilkes words fully into our time and remind us of the ever-urgent call to love the world into being.” { read more }
