Heat 19 Trappers Way

Description

At the heart of Judith Beveridge's new collection is a series of dramatic monologues and character studies centred on a young fisherman, and exploring landscape, character, narrative, imagination and the places they intersect. It is a meditation on the interactions and relationships within a small society of men, and the dignity, beauty and brutality of their work. Storm and Honey also continues Beveridge's fascination with language, people and animals, physics and cosmology, the self, affection and interconnectedness.
