Deep Joy: Reflections on Life (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781739229900)

A book of poems and photos by Tom Finlay, with illustrations by Ursula Clidi鑽e.

This collection invites the reader to explore. It may be a poem that has a particular salience or resonance, it may be one of the photos/illustrations, or it may be the combination of both that invites thoughts and reflections into a different space.

While the illustrated poems (pairings) are curated co-creation of poetry and visual imagery, they are not all free of tensions themselves; some even seem to suggest contradictions.

This creates space for the reader's own imagination and reflections to engage. Both collaborators are present in these pairings, yet they also intend to stand back and offer the pairings as signposts, for the reader's own reflective journey.
