What Do I Know? A Handbook is a collection of song lyrics, poetry, haiku, and original drawings by Susan Carson, a writer, poet, and songwriter whose work is inspired by literature, nature, personal relationships, classical philosophy, and the passage of time. A pervasive thread throughout the collection is time itself: the feeling that there is never enough of it, the ache of waiting for it to reveal its gifts, and the quiet realization that it is always moving us toward something we cannot quite name. Through lyrical verse and contemplative prose, Carson invites readers to pause and consider not only where they have been, but where they are now. Some drawings accompany the writing. Others simply share the page, like thoughts in the margins. They’re not meant to explain the words—or each other. Perhaps this “handbook” or notebook is simply a companion for living with the questions.
