ABOUT
Essays based on observations of natural history and landscape chiefly in the Paraparaumu beach Waikanae estuary area.
A gentle, reflective coastal memoir in which Dempsey draws on her experiences living by the sea, observing its moods, and the people shaped by its presence. She writes with an eye for small details—weather, shoreline life, the rhythms of tides—and how these influence daily routines and personal reflection.
Includes monochrome images.
