Water Basin
About this book
This work continues the poet’s quest to know the mind of Bernard Lonergan SJ (1904–1984). In Water Basin, quiet poems consider desire, love, and time. Ordinary life and vocation, here, are expressed in the light of the garden city where channels cut through rock bring water.
