Grace In The Dirt eBook

From Cory Kruse, author of the critically acclaimed A Dream of Darkness, comes an incisive collection that will delight, inspire, devastate, and uplift you.

Told in spare, accessible entries, Grace in the Dirt is a lyrical memoir that delves into life''s ever-changing seasons, leveraging the author''s own history to explore the complex, and often contradictory, nature of the modern human experience.

Specifically, Kruse covers an expansive breadth of deeply personal topics, things such as love and heartbreak, grief and despair. He recounts moments of hope, and crises of faith; he confesses family drama, personal weaknesses, and his own culpability in the deterioration of dreams. Throughout, he also shares euphoric stories of triumph and overcoming, of crushes and first loves, all while looking toward the future with bright, belief-filled eyes. And, among it all, he offers existential reflections on the fragility---and inanity---of this strange, wonderful thing we call life.

Across these pages, then, readers will encounter recollections of grace and levity, failure and sorrow. They''ll discover truths hard won as well as witness the enduring legacy of hope---all of which will remind them that, no matter what season they''re in, they''re not alone.

Relatable, honest, and exceedingly human, Grace in the Dirt is a diary and a roadmap and a balm---one that will, upon reading, feel like coming home.
