Here is written proof that true love can and does exist in a lifetime. The sensuality of the poetic sinks slowly into your skin.
A rare and compelling love story, Honey In The Blood is a literary work of autobiographical fiction sensually charged with passages of exquisite prose. What emerges are episodic memories rich in love, art, loss, fortune, and fate. A sensual journey, where narrative, language and emotion are depicted with great passion and reflection.
This non-fiction work evokes a realism of places travelled: the West Coast of Aotearoa New Zealand, the countryside of Southwest France, the tropical coast of Australia and the city of Hanoi, Vietnam.
These pages reveal the passionate love between a poet and an artist. This beautiful and powerful impressionistic collage uses creative license with facts. And so, contributes to the autobiographical fictional narrative as a whole.
