In Love and Because of Love

In Love and Because of Love is an outpouring of poems written within a period of 120 days echoing the poet's fragmented fractured world following the death of her spouse. Kathy Campbell-Barton uses the written word to express emotions of loss, fear, and frustration ultimately synonymous with love for life. The book embodies an attempt to begin a process of self-healing that leads to radically loving. Reflections of past experiences and relationships are articulated in a way that connects ordinary life with the spiritual. In Love and Because of Love is an affirmation to love and a testament to abiding hope.
