The Growing Shadow is my tribute and memorial to my partner Anthony, who died on September 3rd 2023. With the editing and publishing help of established poet Alan Morrison, whose mother died in 2025 after a long battle with Huntington’s Disease, the book has been published by Caparison Books.
All my takings from this book will be dedicated to the Huntington’s Disease Centre at University College London.
