A Singular Writer

Opening the beautiful cover was only the first of many delights in reading Renee's book, "A Singular Notion." With a deft hand she weaves her spiritual and personal life struggles with the oncoming death of her mother--and event which many of us have experienced. Her writing is poetic and yet strong, and her use of quotes from other great writers and thinkers indicates the level of her own wise thinking. I think we need more books like this that explore the making of soul in a sometimes crazy world. Well done, Renee!! I intend to give this book to my sisters and friends as gifts and recommend others do the same.

A Beautiful, Gentle Book

A Singular Notion is a gentle, soul-searching collection of essays--a seeking of balance while dealing with the sometimes harsh realities of life. Beginning with the fascination a pensive four-year-old felt for the beautiful countryside of France, Carrier entices us forward through time and life and shares her fascination with the countryside of her home in northeastern Wyoming. Her essays are eloquent, filled with music and beauty and joy, with sorrow, with benediction, and with the power and wholeness of being a woman. A journey through the outer reaches of self and soul, A Singular Notion is sure to send readers seeking answers to their own life questions, offering each the opportunity to commune with the spirit of self and seek their own balance in life.
