Grass of Parnassus, Lindisfarne

This poem is a tribute to the dramatic landscape of Lindisfarne, a tidal island off the coast of Northumberland, and the delicate and sweet-smelling saxifrage (Parnassia palustris) which thrives there.

An artists’ book with striking visual elements, designed and printed by Julie Johnstone.
