This Time | Alison Roe
A short collection of memoir pieces, and a poem, set in the North West Highlands of Scotland, about living aboard a sailboat, hill walking, dry stone walling, the role of landscape in recovery from a concussion, and the long, slow process of finding a home.
A5 pamphlet | 44 pages | Illustrated | £9
It’s mesmerising, through and through. I loved reading the memoir pieces, loved the illustrations, and thought the whole thing was beautifully presented.
—Carol McKay, poet and author
