Some Reviews From Amazon Craig Murray has a knack with the English language that can take the reader down many a moving journey.

Craig Murray is a master at encapsulating the feeling of a moment, the glance at a lover, that initial look of desire, as well as in conveying the intensity of the feelings of falling in and losing love. His images are finely tuned to convey their effect. In this book you will find Murray paying tribute to all that comes with being caught up in that initial feeling of meeting that someone special and, it seems, the inevitable loss that is soon to follow. He examines the hole that comes, the blackness that can result when what was so preciously held slips away. And he peers inward to examine himself and his gender.
