Moonlight combines Australian Instagram sensation Gemma Troy's art and poetry. Each delicate verse is matched with a treasure that Gemma has found in nature to produce a luminous book brimming with love and creativity.
Ever since she was a child out fossicking for gold with her dad and camping in magical fern gullies, Gemma has collected keepsakes from the outdoors. Pebbles, nests, shells, seed pods, plants, bones, feathers - if it's beautiful, portable and can be spared by nature, Gemma takes it home.Moonlight is the second book by Gemma Troy, and follows Heart Lines, which will be published around the world in September 2018 by Andrews McMeel, publisher of Rupi Kaur.Gemma Troy is an Australian poet who lives in the woods of the Sunshine Coast in northern Queensland. She spends her time photographing, making, collecting and writing but feels like verse is the natural habitat of her creativity. She loves and is inspired by life's simplest pleasures and would love to be described as a sun worshipper, pain collector and heart interpreter.
