Quotes

• “The title for the book comes from a quote in Conrads’ ‘Heart of Darkness’ the Russian is described as destitute and lonely in the “essential desolation of his futile wanderings”. I love the quote but the more I thought about it I couldn’t help concluding that there was essential contentment in futile wanderings. The Russian is the Dennis Hopper, photographer character in ‘Apocalypse Now’ by the way.”
• “Yes it is a personal work but surely all work is personal, especially writing.”
• “No I don’t hate St. Ives, in fact I love to visit and do so a couple of times a year at least, although I couldn’t afford to live there obviously. That piece is not about St. Ives it’s about how your perception can change if you have a few too many drinks, and about how your behaviour can sometimes change as well even if you are trying to make perfectly valid points.
• “All the photo’s were taken in and around North Devon and on Lundy Island except for the Newquay (Fistral Beach) shot, my second home, and another taken on a trip to Sri Lanka (Arugam Bay) last year, my third home.”
