Latitude of Grace charts the quiet forces that shape a life, not the landmarks we recount, but the moments that pass unspoken: the slight shifts, the held breaths, the internal realignments that redraw our course in the margins of every day.
Written as a series of ten intimate notebooks, the poems chart themes of origins and legacy, love and loss, motherhood and memory, ambition and resilience. Together, they form a personal cartography: a mapping of coordinates both intimate and unseen. Tracking over 172 pages, Debbie Le Roux's poetry anthology takes the reader on a journey into the quiet, often obscured, submerged truths of the self. Through the gentle hum of her rhythm and the softness of her imagery, one may become blissfully lost in the contours of the author's, and one's own interiority.
Latitude of Grace is written for those who understand that direction is not always forward, and that these are coordinates of life drawn over time — subtle, lived, and true. This is not a search for answers, but a gentle reorientation toward what grounds us — a return to presence, to grace, and to the inner coordinates that guide us home.
