About this ebook
Originally written as a memorial to his father, Paul Evans’ Reflections combines striking imagery with nostalgia-evoking poetry. His use of bold, black and white vignettes alongside winding, reflective verse creates a wholly unique portfolio that is both profoundly Welsh and deeply personal.
