IN THE PRESS

A word is a bird too, once it has flown from the pen to fuse into a visual snapshot of tumultuous thoughts on displacement, cloud watching, and London.

KIERON DEVLIN

LECTURE, WRITER

LONDON

We say there is something going on behind OUR backs. What is behind other people's backs? What will we come to face? Pleasure or pain? Ailing Cai plunges us into the desperation of contingent tragedy, detached from motive, redeemed only by love. 

I hope that those who lost a love before it could run its course can be inspired by the story of A Back Day to keep their beautiful memories and forget their pain.
