The successor to A Deluge of Dreams, Grappling with the Shadows of Giants, continues in the same vein; it is at its core an exploration of truth, purpose, and meaning, which inevitably sidesteps as it attempts to capture, hold, and materialize significance, the ever elusive giant for which we grasp in darkness. In the process, the book tackles depression, fear, and their ever present companion hopelessness, while refusing to let go of hope. It maintains a rhyme scheme throughout the majority of its poems, even on its darkest pages, implying that even in our lowest and most dejected states order and harmony are present. Great and lasting beauty is everywhere. We need only open our eyes to find it.
