Darkling Summary

Darkling: The Owl's Song by Catherine Hyde

Prize-winning poet and artist Catherine Hyde celebrates the magic of the night from dusk till dawn as she follows the owls journey in a gorgeous gift book of full colour paintings.

I turn
to the old orchard
where she hunts:
a ghost glimmering
sweet heart of the moon.
Swooping between trees,
a beating clock of claw and feather,
hush winged, in half light

As we sleep, the forest comes to life. The owl swoops. Moths dance in the moonlight, fireflies mimic the stars, a stag grazes, badgers burrow, foxes prowl, ferns catch the dew.

Resplendent, arresting artwork sit alongside an original poem. Prepare to be enchanted by the creatures of the night.

Darkling Reviews

Darkling is a magnificent praise song that honours both the darkness and the owl. Lyrical in both word and image, it is a wild triumph * Jackie Morris, writer and illustrator *
