Under the Stars: A Journey Into Light by Matt Gaw invites you on an enchanting adventure through the night, where shadows and light intertwine to reveal the world’s hidden wonders. This captivating narrative not only showcases the beauty of nocturnal illumination but also serves as a profound reflection on our relationship with light and darkness.
In Under the Stars: A Journey Into Light, Gaw traverses breathtaking landscapes, from the moonlit shores of Suffolk to the star-studded skies of Scotland. His eloquent prose captures the essence of natural illumination that has guided humans and wildlife alike for centuries. As he delves into the inky depths of Dartmoor and navigates the relentless glare of urban life in London, readers are urged to reconsider the impact of light pollution on our lives.
A masterful blend of storytelling and investigative writing, Under the Stars is not just a book; it’s an illuminating journey that challenges us to look up and appreciate the celestial wonders above. Join Matt Gaw as he unlocks the mysteries of the night, illustrating that sometimes enlightenment comes from stepping into the shadows.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
