"Around the turn of the seventh decade of the last century, a time of violence and of disorienting change, a calming list of advisories called Desiderata went viral by the standards of the day. Posted, reprinted, and occasionally parodied, it was everywhere, and readers were divided on whether it was profound or kitsch. More than half a century later, in a new era of anxiety and confusion, Tony Thelen tells the story behind this cultural icon, and invites us to savor its wisdom and serenity."
