'If you are hungry for truth and beauty, read this book' Roisin
Ingle, The Irish Times 'A demonstration of a will to live that is
breathtaking ... a work of documentary poetry ... an extraordinary
read' The Herald 'An unforgettable read about what it means to be
alive' Woman's Way 'The world "inspirational" is over-used, but if
ever a book deserved this epithet, this is it' Sunday Independent
'Sparsely and beautifully written .. the human spirit and will to
live shines out of these pages' Irish Independent A No.1
bestseller, It's Not Yet Dark is an unforgettable book about
relationships and family, about what connects and separates us as
people and, ultimately, about what it means to be alive. In 2008,
Simon Fitzmaurice was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (mnd).
He was given four years to live. In 2010, in a state of
lung-function collapse, Simon knew with crystal clarity that now
was not his time to die. Against all prevailing medical opinion, he
chose to ventilate in order to stay alive. Here, the young
filmmaker, a husband and father of five small children draws us
deeply into his inner world. Written using an eye-gaze computer and
told in simply expressed and beautifully stark prose, the result is
an astonishing journey into a life which, though brutally
compromised, is lived more fully and in the moment than most,
revealing at its core the power of love its most potent.
