Summary

Mornings When I Wake takes the idea of responding to a book (in this case, Annie Dillard's Holy the Firm) and the "selfing" that arises from the interplay of spirit and text and takes the reader through it experientially, starting in the abstract and slowly moving to the rational. Made up of chapters named for the characters of Holy the Firm, Mornings When I Wake is an ode to Dillard's masterpiece and her overall oeuvre, borrowing themes and styles from many of her books. Put succinctly, it answers the question of what happens when a piece of art lodges in your breastbone.
