More about the book

Set in the seventies in Jersey, the narrative explores the life of a poet navigating a materialistic society. The author reflects on his part-time work with the eccentric John Berger, whose reclusive lifestyle and unique home environment provide a backdrop for the story. The tale intertwines with themes of friendship, creativity, and loss, particularly through the influence of LSD and the tragic suicide of poet Paula Stratton, which deeply impacts the author. This poignant exploration culminates in a collection of elegies for lost friends.
