David Whyte in conversation with Jamie Byng | Brighton Unitarian Church
Nov 16, 2024 (UTC+0)
Brighton and Hove
Following on from ‘Consolations’, David Whyte’s beloved collection of essays that unpacks aspects of being human, ‘Consolations II’ explores the underlying meaning of 52 everyday words and invites readers to think more deeply about language and the choices that influence our lives.
Running from the seemingly mundane through to the taboo, and on subjects that loom impossibly large, David offers reflections, solace and meaning through powerful words ranging from ‘Old to ‘Echo’ from ‘Routine’ to ‘Burnout’ as well as the above mentioned Sex, Shame and Death, David boldly reinterprets each of them, fully embracing their complexity, never shying away from paradox in his search for deeper meaning. In the vein of Rick Rubin's ‘The Creative Act’, Richard Temple's ‘Rules for Life’, Lao Tzu's ‘Tao Te Ching’, and Elizabeth Gilbert’s ‘Big Magic’, ‘Consolations II’ is a revelatory read to re-orientate your life which invites readers into a poetic and thoughtful consideration of words whose meaning and interpretation influence the paths we choose and the way we traverse them throughout our lives. ‘We think we know what we are talking about, the meaning of things, the basic rules of language, until we read David Whyte’s ‘Consolations’ where we are forced to reassess everything and begin again. Such an essential and beautiful book’’-NICK CAVE
