It is a reckoning with the things we inherit silence and absence, stories told and untold and the transgression involved in turning a life into art. At the heart of the book is Gillian, his devoted single mother, and the small yet unforgettable details of her life that are woven into a powerful meditation on impermanence, grief, class and solitude.At once intimate and expansive, this luminous memoir traces one mans journey from loss back towards life. Through stories about the writers and painters with whom he feels a kinship including the English Romantics, W. H. Hudson and Agnes Martin and the history of his own Sussex working-class family, Cunnell writes his way home to a place, to a culture and to himself as an artist.Cunnells descriptive power, so widely praised in his first memoir, reaches a new breathtaking level, with the simplicity that only comes from the finest craft and poetry.
