Publisher's Synopsis
In Zeal Andrew Bailey honours the moments in which the everyday face of the world slips for a second. Dream, myth, faith or intoxication will lead you there; but these glimmers can intrude upon a life when they are least expected.With a poetic eye alert to these moments and roots in the work of Redgrove, Raine, Hopkins and Blake, Bailey's writing follows an unselfconscious and fascinating path toward the more than quotidian.
