Kneeling Beside Dante Patricia Anne Kirby Craddock

KNEELING BESIDE DANTE is a collection of 76 poems on diverse subjects: poetry and art, love and faith, nature and the world. Artists and poets the author admires are represented, as are her winged and four-footed animal friends. Her strong Catholic faith informs all of these poems, as does her love for God and the natural world He made. The title derives from the book's epigraph, from an article by Joseph Sobran in Catholic eye, about the joy generations of Catholics have known in claiming for their own the works of Michelangelo, Dante, and other masters, the great art that has emanated from the Faith through the ages.
