...With striking honesty and insight, Iliffe-Wood reveals the transformative power of love and the quiet joy found in the present moment. This collection is ... a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. -Professor Jonathan Vaughan, Principal, Guildhall School of Music & Drama The sense of a voyage is palpable throughout in language, form and feeling, and hits like a great tsunami crashing against the shore, before finally calming to a steady flow... These elegies deserve to be consumed as thoroughly as they have been written. -Luke Shaw, Trainer, Therapist, Performer The poems spill from the author's generous spirit, landing as grace in the heart and soul... they weave a poetic tapestry stitched with threads of humble, deeply felt love. - Linda Sandel Pettit, Ed.D., Author of Leaning into Curves, Speaker, and Spiritual Midwife .. a remarkable experience, at times feeling like the words were my own. I cannot recommend this series of poems enough. -Jules Swales, Writing Teacher, Author of Declarative and I want a Stonehenge life
