Happy to share that my first zine is now available. Prelude to Silence is an overture to the larger body of work I've been making. Wendell Berry, describing pre-dawn light, said "it is not a light to see by, but only makes the darkness visible". Prelude is a glimpse into this visible darkness. Also, I'm offering a few prints from this work as well. More info here: http://www.emilhandke.com/books

Researching for some upcoming self published books. One collaborative and one of my own. Much thanks to @selfpublishbehappy for making this resource available.

From “Fires” by Ron Jude.

Re-reading Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. It is both haunting and beautiful. Love this description of night: “The nights were blinding cold and casket black and the long reach of morning had a terrible silence to it.”

From John Burnside’s poem, Loved and Lost: Give me a childhood again and I will live as owls do, in the moss and curvature of nightfall -glimpsed, but never really seen,

This is an image from early on in the series. Before the work transitioned more towards night.
