Open Windows

Open Windows throws the shutters wide and invites the reader in to experience a deep exploration of honor, loss and grief, violence and history, spiritual victory, and living an intentional, grace-filled life. In this collection, Craig Scott unflinchingly confronts the Black American experience, the pain, sacrifice, and selflessness of soldiers and military families, and the transformation that is possible with deep and abiding religious faith. Musical and lyrical, these poems combine searing directness with poetic beauty, offering grace and redemption even in the face of humanity's most painful truths.
