From the windswept Famine Trail of Ireland to the starlit skies of the Southern Hemisphere, this collection by S.C. Flynn explores places and the memories they evoke. In ‘Memory and Promise’, Flynn retraces the footsteps of his ancestors along the Famine Trail, weaving reflections on the meaning of diaspora. ‘Grains’ takes us to small-town Australia, evoking the textures of a childhood shaped by its landscapes. Finally, ‘Twelve Views of the Southern Cross’ offers vivid impressions of the countries bridging Australia and Ireland, from the Pacific to South America. A rich tapestry of experience and heritage, these poems invite readers to journey across time, place, and memory.
‘...his imagery catches the
imagination off-guard...’‘Flynn’s pen strikes the page like flint,
stoking the fire of hope within.’
