This sweeping poetry collection charts John Moore’s experiences of travel and work in new places.
Planning sixteen countries across five continents, his poetry breathes life into the reality of living under extreme conditions. From minus fifty degrees in Canada to plus forty-seven in Australia, the collection brings sharp focus to the wonderous but often inhospitable world we call home.
