This is the final instalment in the trilogy that began with Devastating Beauty and Rumours of Light – continuing that journey; developing and refining the dreams and ideas in those books. I’m hoping this sticks the landing in the same way that Return of the King/Jedi and Toy Story 3 did.
I can see my own growth as a poet and person through the books. This is definitely the most mature of the three. By which I mean it reaches for the deepest places; it lets go of the most of what needs letting go; it’s the most authentic reflection of me as an artist and human.
And of course there’s plenty of wonder. And mischief. And longing. And grief. And love. And hope.
I can’t begin to describe what this book means to me, or how excited I am that you’ll soon get to read it.
Much love and gratitude,
Gideon Heugh
