Synopsis

'The poems in this collection sit well beside each other in this homage to travel, journeying and place. The characters that tell these stories are ancient and modern, known and unknown and they meander through the poems, coming and going, some finding rest, some not. The pictures that these lines paint are 'infinity sharp', leading the reader to the end of the collection believing that truly 'at the end of time, all tears are dried.' Gill Lambert Aziz Dixon and Hannah Stone are siblings who grew up in London and Brussels but have, in later life, migrated to the north of England where their spirits continue to roam widely. Accessible and thought-provoking, their poetry is nourished by Celtic roots and diverse spiritualities, by the landscapes they walk through and the people they love.
