In A Wild Bird in My Open Hand, Rod Grant explores the ultimate questions of life, death and human destiny. But he also writes, with rich poetic economy, about the experiences of everyday life love, the death of friends, changes in the seasons, and the ironies of human existence. He draws inspiration from the natural beauty of the surroundings where he lives, the mountains, forests and sea of the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington. In "Dandelion and Late Winter", he strikes an upbeat tone for the book. In "Free and Green Evening", he relates experiences at the edges of our normal range of awareness. In "Mortality and Serenity", from which the title of the book is taken, he positions us for the inevitable end of life. It is a book of remarkable variety and deep insight.
