Under the Sun Our Hearts Are Beating by Seki Lynch (paperback)

Under the Sun Our Hearts Are Beating by Seki Lynch

When was the last time you remembered your heart’s beating?

In his debut collection of lyrics and poetry, Seki Lynch presents pieces on love and connection for anyone who’s ever felt like dancing in the face of their fears.

Finding hope in the depths of disconnection, Under the Sun Our Hearts Are Beating is a gathering of consciousness, seeking to dissolve some of the invisible barriers between us. 

Influenced and inspired by literature, art, science, nature, hip-hop & jazz (specifically), music (generally) and his own experience, these 24 new works sift for meaning and belonging in the chaos of existence.

They’re offered as a reminder that when everything gets on top, despite all you’ve been through, your heart is still beating.
