About this book

Illness and age sharpen the speaker’s attention to gardens, birds, memory and distant landscapes in this poetry collection. The opening poem considers remorse, love and the unexpected clarity of ordinary observations. Personal reckoning sits alongside images of an English autumn and remembered Pacific sunsets, linking awareness of mortality with close attention to the living world.
