Description

Melanie and Sarah met when they shared a big white house on an island next to a passing place.

They waded out, sang selkie songs to a seal they named Sir Douglas, shared stories, poems, wine and secrets, and decided to create something together.

This is their potent and poetic debut collection. Includes a Foreword by Gerry Potter.
