Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

nocturne (noun) (Middle English): of the nightsaudade (noun) (Portuguese): indolent dreaming wistfulnessBorn from years of treasured memories of people, places, deaths, disappointments, and heartaches, Nocturnes and Saudade encapsulates the indescribable state of longing that humanizes us during the worst of times and binds us together during quiet moments of remembrance. By "offering a vocabulary for [her] wounds" and "creating story out of brokenness," debut author Lauren Griffin begins to rework the lessons of her personal narrative, exemplifying how the storms of our hearts-when brought to light through poetry-can provide both understanding and healing to ourselves and others.
