An Abandoned Alphabet: lyrics and poetry

Described by Progradar as having "delivered one of those perfect moments in time, an album of songs of such rare quality, delivered by the most wonderful voice, that stands out like a ray of light in the darkening world", An Abandoned Orchid House is the first full-length album from English musician and singer/songwriter, Talitha Rise. An Abandoned Alphabet combines lyrics from the album, along with selected poems from the visionary singer/songwriter's poetically tangible world armed with lullabies and battle cries, hand in hand. Photos from Talitha Rise, Laurie Griffiths and Eamonn J McCabe are woven throughout. "The Orchid House has been abandoned" says Rise "and now beautiful things are free to grow" The companion book to An Abandoned Orchid House.
