The Consolations of Science and Philosophy

by Christopher Buckley

First published 2021

Christopher Buckley confronts the persistent mysteries that science and philosophy cannot fully resolve. His latest collection examines identity, memory, love, loss, value, selfhood, and divinity alongside the brutal realities of war. Through poetry and nonfiction, Buckley pursues these eternal questions with the conviction that seeking answers matters more than finding them. He approaches each mystery as both skilled craftsman and fellow traveler, recognizing that all of creation shares this same uncertain journey. The work reveals an artist who refuses easy answers, instead finding meaning in the very act of inquiry itself.
