“Charming yet visceral, delicate yet mighty - a real joy to read!”
- Matt Abbott

In this enchanting, evocative debut, Alex Callaghan merges the troubles and anxieties of the real world with the whimsy of the phantasmagorical. From toads in top hats, to hordes of empty mugs, ‘For all the Winter Through’ is a creature that screeches, bites, scratches, and yet, still curls up beside your legs at the end of the day.

It is the bitter cold, the warming fire; a melancholic, yet comforting ode to daydreamers, and all of those wanderers, who frequently find themselves lost inside their own heads.
