From a stronghold in the North, the nightwatch guards its homeland, weighs longheld wisdom, and speaks with us, at once laying down a broad understanding of the times, then setting off on rounds over the centuries through hallways, bulwarks, lanes and woodlands. Striding through ghostly night into dewy morning, the nightwatch asks what is homecoming, where do the borders go, what is the way? Stark, metaphorical and dreamlike, Nightwatch is a work on aesthetics, morality, ontology, theology and Western history. Through what it says we become aware of what cannot be said. Nightwatch casts light in dark times and strengthens its readers. "The writing is strong and robust. Rather than spoon-feeding readers, Nightwatch asks you to dive deep and do your own digging. It is thoughtful, probative, and intentionally ambiguous in places . . . Nightwatch isn't a quick read of the coffee table variety. Nor is it a lemon meringue, brain fluff-type read that's light and frothy. It's more like filet mignon. Something you can sink your teeth into and chew on awhile." —Kristine L., Reedsy "Broad subject matter and a wide scope mark a collection that holds both literary and analytical value, juxtaposing complimentary natural observations with considerations of the heart and mind."—D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review "Garrabrant's literary work touches on life, love, human perception, history, culture, politics, corruption, cynicism, religion, morality, and philosophy . . . His musings are like intimate expressions of what defines us as human beings."—Makeda Cummings, Readers' Favorite "A very promising author of the new generation."—Rickard Lindholm, BTJ "[This] could be read as a homage to restlessness."—Ola Wihlke, BLT "This is an aphoristic work with a coherent viewpoint. It's liberating to read poetry that makes actual statements about reality. Where the author has a message. Afterall, isn't it tiring with literature that goes so far into formality that the existential content gets lost? Here we encounter shimmering words à la Proust with fascinating, complex synergy effects."—Jesper Nordström, Magasin Opulens
