See the poetry in every day…

Blue Sky Through The Window of A Moving Car is an unforgettable collection of illustrated poetry by artist Jordan Bolton. Blending the emotional power of contemporary poetry with the visual language of comics, this beautifully illustrated collection explores the ordinary moments that shape our lives and reveal our shared humanity.

Small yet deeply affecting, these lyrical comic poems capture universal experiences with warmth, wit and compassion. From love and heartbreak to hope, grief, embarrassment and quiet joy, every page offers a moment of recognition, inviting readers to pause, reflect and find beauty in everyday life.

“The kind of book you want to pass around to all of your friends to make sure they’ve read it.” — Jack Edwards

“Tremendous… Cinematic and poetic, it captures the heartbreak of everyday life.” — Malaka Gharib

“Truthful observations of things and thoughts unsaid.” — Matthew Johnstone

In his debut collection, Jordan Bolton combines poetry and sequential art to tell deeply human stories through words and illustration. Organised into three sections — In Public, In Transit, and At Home — these visual poems illuminate the quiet moments, passing strangers and unspoken emotions that connect us all.

Expanded with new and previously unpublished comics, Blue Sky Through The Window of A Moving Car is a moving celebration of connection, empathy and the extraordinary hidden within the everyday.

Perfect for readers who love contemporary poetry, graphic novels, literary comics. A thoughtful gift for poetry lovers, this is a book to return to again and again—a reminder that everything is ordinary, everything is extraordinary, and everything is connected.
