Uncovering the Dark Secrets Beneath the Surface in Matthew Morris’s The Tilling
Till is also until, up to a point. Morris has tilled his life, his memories, his relationship to himself — his ancestry, his body and skin — and others, excavating the roots that help him make sense of it all. This is a forever journey. The Tilling cracks open for the reader the critical flashpoints of Morris’ life to date from which he assembles a sense of wholeness, a sense of self. I hope readers will be able to find ways to do the same for themselves as they read this moving and vulnerable collection.
