    About this ebook

    Embark on a poetic journey through the ethereal realms of Poems from the October River Rabbit, the captivating second collection by Kolin Richmond Hughes. Following the resounding success of Poems from a Melancholic Panda, this exquisite compilation of fifty-five poems delves into profound themes that resonate with the soul.

    Richmond Hughes invites readers to explore the tapestry of the natural world, unveiling a profound concern for the environment that intertwines with poignant observations of life itself. With unflinching honesty, the collection also delves into the intricacies of human sexuality, offering a compelling exploration of its many facets.

    Published in the auspicious year of the river rabbit, the author felt an undeniable personal connection, prompting him to mark this occasion with his second manuscript. Through this heartfelt tribute, the poems encapsulate the enigmatic qualities associated with rabbits – gentle and elusive, yet profound in their impact.
