The Space Between the Stars

‘A tender, touching and at times bloody funny meditation on life. And death. And how to live. The Space Between the Stars is a little treasure. I am richer for having read this book.’ David Wenham‘Indira Naidoo’s writing beats with the strength and power of love and hope, and is a moving meditation on the solace and healing we find in the natural world.’ Holly Ringland‘The world is crying out for more intimate and granular paths through the landscape of grief right now. Thank you dear Indira for taking our hand and bravely showing us how being in nature can provide our way.’ Sarah Wilson‘This book is life-changing - from deep loss and despair there is also light. Put your face towards it. It may be the only thing that feels real at this time. Let nature do its job and fix what has been broken in all of us.’ Kate Ceberano‘A powerfully moving and insightful journey. Careful attention is a form of love, and Indira Naidoo’s vivid writing shows us how such love can lift and expand our minds and spirits, drawing us into the wonders of the universe.’ David George Haskell, author of Pulitzer finalist The Forest Unseen and Burroughs medallist The Songs of the Trees.‘Part memoir, part requiem, part journalistic meditation on the natural world … Naidoo has penned a beautiful reflection on grief, and the unexpected pathway she took to overcome it.’ Chris Taylor
