Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

One Wave 42 Ripples: Rising in the Drift is a deeply evocative collection of contemporary poetry and narrative fragments that moves between memory, emotion and lived experience with striking honesty.At its heart, this book is about the quiet storms that shape a life. It captures moments of love and loss, childhood and adulthood, migration and belonging, creativity and uncertainty. Each piece unfolds like a ripple in water, small at first, then expanding into something far wider and more powerful than it first appears.The poems shift between vivid storytelling and lyrical reflection. A childhood filled with imagination sits beside the weight of heartbreak. Everyday encounters become symbols of longing, identity and transformation. A simple drive, a conversation in a taxi, a storm outside a window or a blank page waiting to be filled all become entry points into a deeper emotional landscape.This collection also explores what it means to create while living through change. The act of painting, writing and observing becomes a form of survival, a way of making sense of a world that is often unpredictable, tender and overwhelming all at once.Set against the backdrop of Australia and threaded with memories of elsewhere, the voice in these pages is both intimate and universal. It speaks to anyone who has ever felt caught between who they were, who they are and who they are becoming.Poignant, reflective and visually rich in its imagery, One Wave 42 Ripples lingers long after reading. It does not offer simple answers. Instead, it offers something rarer, a mirror held up to the emotional currents that quietly shape us all.
