The Impermanence of Lilies

Daniel Yeo

Maison d'édition: Ethos Books

Synopsis

The captain of the Titanic went down with his ship on 15 April, 1912. But thoughts have power, and those who endure in the stories of the living are said to continue to roam the world after their deaths. And so the captain wanders in search of the things he tried to find in life, and discovers his destiny intimately entwined with a painter who shares the same fate, not knowing that their paths had crossed a long time ago. 
 
The Impermanence of Lilies is a melancholic tribute to the nature of life and a yearning for love, in a story that reaches across lifetimes, borders, and the space between two hearts. 
 
 
"A poetic, poignant love letter to life. Daniel Yeo has important things to tell us about the painful beauty of impermanence, and he tells them with a tender lyricism." 
-Melissa de Villiers, author of The Chameleon House 
 
“A wistful travel narrative by the RMS Titanic Captain that dives into preternatural waters, flowing into surprising and surrealist tributaries of reflections on death, memory, identity, friendship, and unwaveringly, love.” 
-Cyril Wong, poet and fictionist

Genuine Love - The Authentic...

Esther Jameson

Genuine love is a profound and selfless connection that goes beyond fleeting emotions or superficial attractions. It is the kind of love that stands the test of time, built on a foundation of trust, honesty, and deep care for another person’s well-being. Unlike infatuation, which often thrives on excitement and novelty, genuine love is rooted in understanding, patience, and an unwavering commitment to support and uplift someone unconditionally. It does not fade in the face of challenges but instead grows stronger through them. 
One of the most distinguishing features of true affection is its authenticity. There is no pretense, no need to impress, and no expectation of perfection. Genuine love allows people to be their truest selves, knowing they are accepted and cherished just as they are. It does not seek to control or manipulate but instead nurtures personal growth and emotional security. Those who experience this form of love feel safe, valued, and deeply connected. 
Empathy plays a crucial role in fostering genuine love. The ability to understand and share another person’s emotions creates a bond that transcends words. It is through empathy that love becomes a source of comfort, reassurance, and strength. When someone genuinely loves another, they do not merely sympathize with their struggles; they actively seek to ease their burdens, celebrate their victories, and stand beside them through every season of life.
