About the book

We were born into the no more. The no more warm smell of a cattle shed, my grandfather's hands worn and beaten, became withered and pale, his buckets empty, fields aching with emptiness. A stag runs into the forest, along the hedge and into the shadow of branches, carrying with it the trace of a memory. Time and nature have shaped the Forest of Dean – and the people who call it home. Always changing, this landscape carries the marks of every generation. Steeped in the scent of moss, Rose Day's debut collection is both a mourning and a celebration of the land, culture and history of the Vorest.
