Seasons of Unmasking is a poetry collection that moves through the natural rhythm of a year, reflecting the internal shifts that accompany growth, loss, and quiet self recognition.Organised by season, the poems follow a speaker learning to loosen old defences and inhabit the self more fully. The language is spare, reflective, and grounded in everyday moments, allowing silence and restraint to carry as much meaning as declaration.Rather than offering answers, the collection invites attentiveness. It asks the reader to linger with uncertainty, tenderness, and the subtle courage of unguarded presence. (from back cover)Seasons of Unmasking traces a quiet year of becoming. Through cycles of emergence, exposure, reckoning, and rest, these poems explore what remains when performance falls away.Rooted in intimacy and attentive to the ordinary, the collection listens for the moments we often pass over. The pause before speaking. The self glimpsed without armour. The courage of standing still inside change.A book for anyone learning how to live honestly within their own seasons.
