In "Clouds In An Empty Sky" the author, moved by Daoist thougt, Sufi philosophy and a love of Nature, travels a path connecting self awareness, self responsibility an self healing.

Many of the stories and all of the poems in this volume, like those in its predecessor "Clay Tree Bird", consider our relationships with the natural world, the wild places and our experiences, motivations and actions. They explore how we might become wiser about the realities around us and develop a deeper understanding of what it is to be a part of the natural world.
