AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Leon Trainor's fourth collection of poems. It spans major events in his life, including the early years of his marriage and experience of Europe, a crisis of love and faith and the final illness and death of his wife. The collection culminates in the poet's encounters with Asia through his work and travels in the region. Trainor captures those circumstances that had a profound impact on him. Such moments, often found in the small events of daily life, are full of wonderment and beauty. They continue to the present day.' (Publisher's blurb)
