Sandpaper & Seahorses

John Froy’s second collection is filled with love, hopes and fears for his family and friends and for the natural world.

From Costa Rica to Japan, Somerset to Cumbria, and taking in Antarctica too,

with oceans and islands as seen from a small boat, John Froy’s second collection

draws its concerns from human vulnerability and ecological anxiety.

Straightforward and direct, these poems take on loss, both personal and global, but

they bring to it a joy in creation, as well as humour, gratitude, admiration and love.
