'I have come to thank dark places for the light they bring to life' Thomas Cook has always been drawn to dark places for the powerful emotions they evoke & for what we can learn from them These lessons are often unexpected & sometimes profoundly intimate but they are never straightforward With his wife & daughter Cook travels across the globe in search of darkness
- from Lourdes to Ghana from San Francisco to Verdun from the monumental mechanised horror of Auschwitz to the intimate personal grief of a shrine to dead infants in Kamukura Japan Along the way he reflects on what these sites may teach us not only about human history but about our own personal histories During the course of a lifetime of traveling to some of earth's most tragic shores from the leper colony on Molokai to ground zero at Hiroshima he finds not darkness alone but a light that can illuminate the darkness within each of us Written in vivid prose this is at once a personal memoir of exploration (both external & internal) & a strangely heartening look at the radiance that may be found at the very heart of darkness
