Always Partly Broken - Paperback

by Raymond Geers (Author)

A Memoir of Love, Leaving, and Becoming

The past does not always stay buried. When a long-dormant love stirs again, it unsettles the careful rhythms of the author's settled life. Once impulsive, now a midlife daydreamer grounded in domestic routines, he feels the pull of his earlier world pressing into the present. Having once turned from a vowed religious life toward parenthood, he confronts the lasting seam between who he was and who he has become. Written with compassion and a quiet sense of humor, this memoir reflects on love, memory, faith, and identity-and on the unfinished questions that continue to shape our lives.
