Description

Pairing stunning art with lyrical poetry, this ode to the owl is deeply compelling on multiple levels: Barnes and Noble

‘Prize-winning poet and artist Catherine Hyde celebrates the magic of the night from dusk till dawn as she follows the owl’s journey in a gorgeous book of full colour paintings’

‘I turn
to the old orchard
where she hunts:
a ghost glimmering
sweet heart of the moon.
Swooping between trees,
a beating clock of claw and feather,
hush winged, in half light’

Reviews

‘A beautiful, poetic love letter to the owl and the world it inhabits. This delightful book would suit adults and children alike with its evocative poetry creating such strong visual imagery you can almost hear the dormouse rustling and smell the damp mossy woodland. The illustrations are stunning and perfectly ethereal. A lovely gift for anybody who appreciates art, poetry and nature or all three.’

Marianne (Five Leaves Bookshop)
