The Green Man is a collection of poetry that looks to the world around us and asks what lies behind the things we can see, smell, taste, touch, and hear. Poetry can help us see through what Coleridge called the ""film of familiarity."" These poems attempt to help the reader pierce that veil and see the world around them in a new light.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

“In these poems, David Mosley offers us a refreshing take on the aliveness of all things—of plants and animals, of the cosmos, of the saints, and of all beings in between. What a pleasure it is to walk the forests and gardens with this poet of deep sensibility.”

—Michael Martin, author of The Submerged Reality: Sophiology and the Turn to a Poetic Metaphysics



“These poems remain faithful to the green heart that fires their movement, one that proclaims, ‘At the Root of the World there is a Tree.’ The poetry unfolds in between: in between church, stone, and tree; the old gods and the new; and Celtic spirituality and Catholic theology. The deft use of both organic and metered form creatively discloses the divine at work over and again—and form a welcome contribution to the tradition of eco-theological poetics. A most impressive debut.”

—Michael P. Murphy, Loyola University, Chicago
