Synopsis

Peter Godfrey’s first collection is a book of reports from the front-line, messages sent from over the border, beyond the edge of the map – Madrid 1939, Oradour 1944, Hiroshima 1945, Santiago 1973, San Carlos Bay 1982. It’s a celebration of those who – like Dom Helder Câmara, René Magritte, Oscar Neimeyer, Wat Tyler and Jacques Brel – have understood ‘the glory of pedalling the wrong way on a one-way street’. And it’s a hymn to the patient humility of those who believe that life does not have to be like this, and who imbue the world with grace.
