For earlier essays on this week's RCL texts, see the essay by Debie Thomas, You Know Everything; and the four essays by Dan Clendenin, Peter and Paul: Before and After, Renunciation and Return, Picking Up the Broken Pieces, and A Fire of Burning Coals.

In his Introduction to Matt Seitz's book The Wes Anderson Collection (2013), Michael Chabon explores the worldview of the award-winning filmmaker. When we are children, says Chabon, we experience the world as unbelievably big and beautiful, "full of marvels and surprises." But children also eventually discover that the world is "irretrievably broken,” with its "heartbreak, violence, failure, cowardice, duplicity, cruelty, and grief."
In the pangs of adolescence, we learn that beauty and brokenness can mix and mingle. We then try to reconcile these two experiences when they provoke "the ache of cosmic nostalgia, an intimation of vanished glory, a memory of the world unbroken." This second experience is as powerful as the first, says Chabon, and "the feeling haunts people all their lives."

This year we're not able to physically hand you a poem to tuck away, but we will be virtually handing out a new poem each day from over 30 contemporary poets. We hope you follow along online across the Library’s social media channels—find us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
