À propos du livre
This is a story about a journey in search of the spirit of a poem about a beautiful lake, family and happy times.
My grandfather wrote this poem about a lake that he loved. It has been familiar to me as far back as I can recall, when I first heard my mother reciting the verses. She knew them by heart. Often, on reaching the end, tears would fill her eyes. I believe she was remembering her father and happier times.
I am a photographer. The words of the poem and the feelings they unlock form pictures in my mind. Would these imagined pictures, bear any resemblance to the real Blue Sea? I decided to visit this lake for the first time.
