Scattered Light: Book One by Khalaf Jerry is a prose-led illustrated literary work exploring memory, identity, testimony, and transformation through four movements.
Words and visual art come together to examine what we remember clearly, what remains in shadow, and what changes when those fragments are finally named.
Forthcoming from High Bond Publications.

With the illustrator now selected, the project moves into its next stage: developing the visual world of Scattered Light.
More to come.
Scattered Light: Book One explores memory, identity, testimony, and transformation. It considers how a life is carried in fragments—what is remembered clearly, what remains in shadow, and what changes when those fragments are finally named.
The title suggests contrast rather than perfection: light broken, redirected, and still reaching the eye. Its illustrated world is intimate, layered, and human, leaving room for mystery and emotional truth.
