Publisher's Synopsis
Beneath London's shifting skyline, nestled between the old and the new, the ruins of St Dunstan-in-the-East stand-wrapped in ivy, watching time pass. 'The Stars Speak Last at St Dunstan-in-the-East' is a lyrical short story-meditation that captures the quiet beauty of nature reclaiming lost spaces, the gentle rhythms of the changing seasons, and the silent gaze of the constellations above.
Through poetic prose, it reflectively explores calm sunlight spilling across moss-laden stone, the restless dance of squirrels in tangled undergrowth, the hush of moonlight filtering through broken archways, and the stars that linger long after history has faded. A meditation on resilience, memory, and the endless conversation between earth and sky, this is for those who find meaning in the stillness of forgotten places. Perfect for lovers of atmospheric storytelling, contemplative nature writing, and tales woven from time, history, and stardust. A must for stressed Londoners seeking solace at lunchtime. Good for everyone exploring East London from a different perspective of calm and peace.
