With love to my husband, Sean Considine.
Thank you for your invaluable support throughout the writing of On Your Doorstep.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.
From ‘The Stolen Child’ by William Butler Yeats.
