Sobre IBD

The 28 poems in this illustrated edition of ’Those Footsteps Behind’ are inspired by different travel destinations around the world, and each one is illustrated using an image from that place. From Hawaii to New Zealand, and from Finland to South Africa, this collection moves through many of the compass points on a traveller’s atlas. While the main theme is travel, the notion of time is also a constant presence. The poems echo a traveller’s footsteps over a period of some three decades, but also the footsteps of others, through history and the present day, with one eye on the future. 3
