Joe already thinks it will be one of his books of the year; beautifully written, it pulls no punches on how much damage we have done to our world, but it also instils hope and that equally precious commodity, the sense of wonder.

Signed Indie Bookshop editions available now.

It's the time of year where the pavements, even humble street gutters, are carpeted with silken leaves.

Our footsteps walk on falling dreams of spring & the summer to come, & the merest breath of wind will make them dance again in the air, as if in joy at the rebirth of the world.
