AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'This collection of Paul Kane's poetry, written after the death of Tina, his wife of thirty-six years, takes the reader through the deep process of grieving-in all its ebb and flow of emotion, its harrowing sorrow and sense of despair-to further stages of acceptance and self-recovery.
'Kane's poems (written as Persian ghazals) illuminate the pathways of this lonely pilgrimage and will resonate with those who have mourned the loss of a loved one.' (Publication summary)
