The second collection by IS&T contributor Phil Lucas is now out from Palores Publications. Phil says the title comes from leaving Cornwall and returning to his childhood home in Twickenham. He adds: "This collection both opens up and adds to the themes explored in my first book. It's fair to say that some of the black has now been covered with brighter hues, and as a writer, maybe I've travelled on the train that little bit more, stopping to bask at previously unexplored stations."
