Ah, Wilderness is a collection of short essays penned by Simeon Dumdum, Jr. In them the author muses on the connection between his Catholic faith and his every day experience, using each to heighten his awareness and appreciation for the other. Arranged in line with the Catholic calendar, Dumdum's essays explore topics as wide ranging as classical art, poverty, childhood and the generation gap in short, poetic prose.

"A beautiful piece of work: the musings of a man of faith who also has the gift of poetic expression." - Miguel A. Bernad, S.J. "Dumdum's essays fulfill the perfect fantasy of having a poet do the homily at the Holy Mass. For here, not only does the profane become sacred, but the mundane and the ordinary become blessed and timeless. Seasons of grace jostle with beggars and backdoors. Gospel accounts dance with radio programs for love. And ruminations on the Word turn into the wonderful celebration of the often forgotten sacrament that is writing - and living." - Lawrence L. Ypil"
