The Epistles to Eve are letters in the form of sonnets, asking Our Mother Eve how she established civilization after the fall. They were written at the end of the COVID pandemic and the state of the world was troubling. It seemed that when it was over so much had changed that we would need to recreate a new culture out of fragments. Who better to ask than Eve? It engaged the author's whimsey after two years in confinement. It was clear after the world emerged from its confinement there would be reassessments of how we had acted, as well as a loss of confidence in the leadership as there had been after other pandemics. How would we reinvent ourselves and our culture the author wondered, so she asked Eve fundamental questions and meditated on our connections to creation and the new creation-death and life. It also includes the author's faith journey through these times.
In addition, there are a variety of small poems, epigrams, plus another meditation in sonnets, on the topics in Augustine's On Christian Doctrine, a book the author had grown to love as she taught it for many years. Taking the lofty topics in Augustine and relating them to times and people in our own time gave it a structure for meditation on the holy life.
While the sonnet form is complete unto itself, over the years, the author has used the form as a narrative form and continues to do so.
