In his third collection of poetry, Michael Brown takes us on a journey around the British coast visiting harbours, lighthouses and beaches. These are remote rural places transformed at night-time, away from the tourist season, where the poet explores climate change, coastal life and an ever-changing environment. Having recently adopted his son, we find here verse that reflects on the adoption process, school protests and childhood memories. We also hear stories from Grenfell Tower, the Irish border and LGBT history month
