Into the Void

Death is a pervasive reality that impacts the life of every living person, often leading to denial, avoidance, and attempts to overcome it. In the end, we all must face death, as Dr. Tom Greening does in his new book of poems, Into the Void. This powerful collection of poems written by the eminent existential psychologist, Dr. Tom Greening. With his usual wit, humor, and honesty, Greening birthed these poems from his experience as he ages and faces his own declining health and mortality. Each poem reveals another layer of the experience of facing death. The honesty of Greening’s poems is a gift to all who read them. They are sure to bring laughter, sadness, and tears. But most importantly, they bring with them poignant wisdom that may help others in their own journey with their mortality.
