'What would you do if you looked up and saw that the night sky was darker than usual? That the stars had disappeared, and nobody was doing anything about it?

'What do you do when a loved one tells you that their world is darker than usual? That they see no light, and don’t know what to do about it?

'Born from loss, Errant Night is a firsthand case study in resilience. In this sequence of prose poems, Beaumont draws upon the sci-fi wonder of interstellar travel to throw comparative light upon burdens unspoken.'
