    Author Jane Lightbourne
    “Book Descriptions: 'We met too soon, some said, and now you are gone, and I am looking at the dawn of a thousand tomorrows, still holding onto yesterday’s sun.’

    Bright Dust is author Jane Lightbourne’s first poetry collection from publisher Nevada Street Press (WINNER - BEST EMERGING INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER 2024 - UK ENTERPRISE AWARDS 2024).

    Reminiscent of the work of early 20th century imagist poets, the poems celebrate all forms of love, from desire to treachery and betrayal, from love as destroyer to love’s destruction and loss, the consolations of domestic love, and finally to the ultimate solace found in the force and beauty of the natural world, and the peace that comes from an acceptance of our place within it.

    Readers are invited to contemplate the intricacies of human experience through carefully written, poignant verses that are brief, evocative, and thought-provoking.

    Praise for Bright Dust

    'Lightbourne’s work invites an appreciation for the subtle complexities of life and love, rendered with a delicate touch that speaks to the fragility and beauty of human connections.’ The International Review of Books (AWARDED A BADGE OF EXCELLENCE)

    ‘Beautiful and profound but also tender and enigmatic, these poems capture the essence of the human condition … A testament to Jane Lightbourne's promising talent in the literary world.’ The International Review of Books

    Jane Lightbourne is also the author of two books for children aged 7 to 11, My Cat Called Red and A Tale of Three Tabbies, and Loss, for adults, all published by Nevada Street Press.”
