As stories emerge from the shadows, we meet a young boy whose arrival brings hope, but whose journey will know winter's path. November is a rainstorm, December a bleak twilight, but as January dawns and the ice thaws, the fragile light of love penetrates the dark, bringing beauty to the earth and making new beginnings possible.

In writing of shadowed beauty, Midwinter is a poignant exploration of a season of loss, and the glimpses of hope that can follow even the longest nights.

With illustrations by Enagh Farrell.

Snow falls within.
Blanketing the heart in peace.
Winter's dream takes hold.

Praise for Midwinter: A Journey Through a Season

“Midwinter is a keenly observed book, which despite the tragic outcome, is also funny, coarse in a peculiar rural way and unbearably honest. Harding writes with lyrical beauty, but also catches the savage underbelly of rural life”

Liam Collins, Irish Independent
