Sharman Apt Russell , Standing in the Light: My Life as a Pantheist.
Naturalist, author, and creative writing teacher Sharman Apt Russell will discuss and sign her new book Standing in the Light: My Life as a Pantheist ($25.00 Basic Books). Perhaps no other religious philosophy is as simple and inclusive as pantheism. What is, right now, is divine; there is no god apart from the universe itself. In Standing in the Light, Russell explores the history of this tradition from the Stoic philosophers to the Transcendentalists while reflecting on her own life during a year spent in the mountains and desert of southwestern New Mexico.Request a signed copy: books@tatteredcover.com (booksense)… (more)
