The Book of Ecclesiastes was written between the third and second centuries B.C. But Alice Camille guides us on a surprisingly modern and personal spiritual exploration of the poem that inspired a popular sixties folk song that became an anthem for world peace. This breathtaking book takes each line of the Old Testament poem and uncovers a powerful message not just for churchgoers, but for anyone, young adults in particular, seeking answers to questions about life’s polarities: planting and plucking up; breaking down and building up; killing and healing; mourning and dancing.
