About the Book

A twelve-month diary through poetry, exploring mortality and meaning and mystery, by the hospital bedside and in the pages of a notebook, Courting the Mystery engages and dances with those answerless questions burning at the heart of our human experience. Paperback, 96 pages.

About the Author :
Jeremy Palmer is a writer based in Geelong, Australia. With a background in music teaching and disability support work, he works as a Spiritual Care Clinician, in a hospital setting, offering a companioning presence and space of reflection to patients and their families, supporting them to tell their stories, explore meaning and make sense of their experience, particularly in Cancer Services and End of Life. Hounded from a young age by questions of the nature of existence, Jeremy has spent over a decade immersed in the study of spiritual literature, contemplation, meditation, work with groups, teachers, therapists and relationships, exploring, unravelling the knots of his own heart and mind. His writing has naturally spilled over from this process. His style is elegant and introspective, alight with personal inner journeying, the timeless search for meaning, flavoured with the imaginings of a hopeless romantic and a love-affair with the symbols of religion and myth.In 2021, he completed a qualification in Bereavement Counselling, and currently is dreaming of cottages in the Cotswolds, patchwork hills and cobblestone streets.

Review :
'I recognise myself in Jeremy's words, in his images. ...He highlights the exquisite beauty in the suffering, captures the courage to 'be with' someone as they struggle to meet the agony of their pain. He portrays the essence of the child, the adult, the spirit, the courage. It speaks volumes about who he is and who we are as human beings.' -Jackie Tarabay Specialist Bereavement Counsellor/Clinical Supervisor/Trainer, Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement 'Through the art of his poetry, Jeremy ministers to us. The mysteries of some of life's threshold experiences are brought to the surface and come more clearly into focus. ...There is a sense of the familiar about his images. They are about life and spirit and I recognise them.' -Peter Roberts, Music-Thanatologist, co-author of 'The Harp and the Ferryman' 'Through his courage and willingness to become vulnerable, [Jeremy] engages a process of deep reflection on what it means to be human, in face of the challenges of existing at all. In this offering, he companions us into the very expression of human experience, celebrating its existence, life in all its fullness, including its brevity-befriending our mortality, and in doing so, throwing open the portal to a more vibrant, richer living, and beyond that, the possibility of an encounter with the profound.' -Rev. Thomas A. Rose Clinical Pastoral Educator, Centre Director, Epworth Community C.P.E. Centre
