COMING SOON
🍃Salt Wind, Rising Water is a gentle ode to nature and a captivating account of how two Dubliners transformed two wild, windswept acres on Sligo’s north coast into a thriving wood, orchard, and garden. Over thirty years, John S. Doyle and his family were welcomed into a vibrant community of writers, painters, and small farmers who encouraged their vision and shared in their journey.
Part nature book and part memoir, this is a reflection on the joy of creating a landscape, and about the community who helped to make it.
🥂We will be launching the book in Hodges Figgis in June - all welcome!
