Hear us O Lord from heaven thy dwelling place

A collection of linked stories and novellas published after Lowry's death, many set in the places he knew: British Columbia, Mexico, Europe and the sea. They feature artists and wanderers who face loneliness, the pull of nature and the dangers of their own habits. The title story follows a couple on a sea voyage, while others draw on Lowry's life in a remote cabin by the water. Written in his rich, musical prose, the collection gives a fuller sense of his range beyond his famous novel.
