Return by Minor Road (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

In her mid-20s, Heidi Williamson was part of a Scottish community that suffered an inconceivable tragedy, the Dunblane Primary School shooting. Those years living in the town form the focus of her third poetry collection. Through rivers, rain, wildlife and landscape, Williamson revisits where 'the occasional endures' and discovers the healing properties of a beloved place that helped form her.
