Overview

Latitude of Grace charts the quiet forces that shape a life, not the landmarks we recount, but the moments that pass unspoken - the slight shifts, the held breaths, the internal realignments that redraw our course in the margins of every day. Written as a series of ten intimate notebooks, the poems chart themes of origins and legacy, love and loss, motherhood and memory, ambition and resilience. Together, they form a personal cartography - a mapping of coordinates both intimate and unseen. Debbie Le Roux's poetry anthology takes the reader on a journey into the quiet, often obscured, submerged truths of the self. Through the gentle hum of her rhythm and the softness of her imagery, one may become blissfully lost in the contours of the author's and one's own interiority. Latitude of Grace is written for those who understand that direction is not always forward, and that these are coordinates of life drawn over time - subtle, lived, and true. This is not a search for answers, but a gentle reorientation toward what grounds us - a return to presence, to grace, and to the inner coordinates that guide us home.

Author Information

Debbie Le Roux writes to explore the unseen forces that shape identity, love, loss and renewal. Her work is rooted in a belief that creativity and words can make sense of what life unsettles, offering both anchor points and new horizons. Raised in South Africa and now living in Australia, Debbie draws on landscapes of memory, resilience and belonging. Her writing often returns to the questions that matter most: how we endure, how we transform, and how we find our way back to ourselves. In a career spanning more than three decades, Debbie has held senior executive roles across the education sectors of South Africa and Australia and now serves as CEO of an independent higher education institution in Sydney. Her career is marked by a commitment to leadership that sees both systems and the people within them. Beneath this lifelong commitment to people and purpose, however, runs an older truth: Debbie has always been, at heart, an artist and a poet.Debbie is a mother of two adult children who bring her great joy. She holds two master's degrees in Global Business Administration and TESOL and brings to her creative work a reverence for learning, nature, art and the quiet architecture of human experience. Through poetry and art she seeks to trace the tender cartographies that connect us, offering no easy answers but a hard-won grace. Her writing is a form of fieldwork - mapping the sacred in the everyday, and offering readers a sense of presence, possibility, and home. This is her first collection.
