Awakening

Awakening is about capturing the heart of those moments in our lives that impress our deepest feelings, with vivifying details that act as a mirror to stir our conscience. David Kherdian's work is clean and spare, and leaves the reader with an abiding sense of their own reality. His poetry exists in the mystic tradition of American poets such as Thoreau and Walt Whitman, poets who are often misunderstood in their own time.
