Synopsis:

I' ve learned that not all poetry lends itself to music — some thoughts need to be sung only against the silence. There are softer and less tangible part s of our selves that are so essential to peace, to openheartedness, to unfolding the vision and the spiritual realm of our lives, to exposing our souls.

- Jewel, From the Preface

She delves into matters of the home, the comfort of family, the beauty of Alaska, and the dislocation of divorce.

And then there are the images of the road, the people, the bars, the planes, places exotic and mundane, loneliness and friendship.

Frank and honest, serious and suddenly playful, A Night Without Armor is a talented artist' s intimate portrait of what makes us uniquely human.

After delving into the pages of this book. I realized the clarity of emotion Jewel presents in her poems. Writing only what is true in her experiences. I enjoyed A Night Without Armour so much that I have passed it around to all my friends and family. Jewel's writing has touched us all.
