»Brillant geschrieben, atemberaubend spannend und unglaublich gut recherchiert.« The Sunday Times Als Jurij Gagarin 1961 als erster Mensch ins All flog, hatte er nicht nur die Schwerkraft, sondern auch den Eisernen Vorhang überwunden, der auf der Erde den Kommunismus vom Kapitalismus trennte. Die USA befanden sich nach diesem Coup in wilder Panik, die Sowjetunion triumphierte. Basierend auf neuen Quellen erzählt dieses packende Buch vom aberwitzigen »Race to Space« der Supermächte: vom mörderischen Training der Kosmonauten, von Hunden und Schimpansen in Raketen, Bomben im Cockpit, dilettantischer Technik und der Angst der Kommunisten, im All am Ende auf Gott zu treffen. „Stephen Walker hat es geschafft, die unglaubliche Reise meines Vaters nacherlebbar zu machen!“ – Jelena Gagarina, Tochter von Jurij Gagarin „Fesselnd, faszinierend und unglaublich gut recherchiert. Ich habe jede Seite verschlungen.“ - Laura Shepard-Churchley, Tochter von Alan Shepard

This selection of poems by a new author was triggered by the tragic death of his 28-year-old daughter. So the collection begins with loss and the aftermath of loss: the hope of the author that his daughter and he may be reunited in the life to come. This hope underlies many of the poems. This is clearly articulated in 'Osler and Son', where a father grieves for loss of his son in World War I but in a stoical, unexpressed manner. The author records his childhood experience of emotions being held back in 'Boys Don't Cry John'. While some poems look back, most are contemporary, such as those inspired by the lockdown and the Ukraine War. The author advocates expression of feelings. This is powerfully expressed in relation to his experience of Friendship, both past and present. Transcendental beauty is a theme in the metaphysical poems 'The Colour Blue' and 'Roman Glass'. However, each poem is unique. Many of them speak from the heart and have an emotional impact. The author hopes that these will resonate with readers.
