In the Darkness IS the Light is Richard M. Grove's intimate journey through Cuba, China and the landscape of memory, written in the aftermath of losing his beloved wife and lifelong travel companion, Kim. Blending travel memoir, poetry, personal anecdotes and metaphysical reflection, Grove revisits the places they travelled together while discovering that the journey of a shared life does not necessarily end with death. The book moves between the humour and unexpected pleasures of travel, vivid observations of unfamiliar places, poetry, memories of Kim and deeper reflections on harmony, grief, love and the nature of light. From the delicate metaphor of a feather balanced in the air to the crowded streets and remarkable landscapes of China and the warmth and memories of Cuba, Grove gradually arrives at a simple but deeply personal understanding: "the light of a loved one can continue to illuminate our lives even after that person is no longer physically beside us."
