Explore the legacy of a gifted writer and beloved English teacher whose manuscript was stolen after his mysterious death.

Alison Blydenburgh has compiled a remarkable collection of essays and poetry from her late father, a beloved English teacher at Tisbury School on Martha’s Vineyard. His work, filled with insight and emotion, serves as a testament to his literary talent and the complex history surrounding his life. Born the eldest son to a deeply Masonic family, his work explores his escape from darkness, pursuit of spiritual truth, and the defiance and resilience of a light seeking soul. Kirk’s original manuscript was stolen from his teaching desk after his mysterious death in 1970; now, 54 years later, it has been painstakingly reconstructed by his daughter, who has completed his endeavor to have it published. She has authored the biographical prologue and epilogue to give readers a full insight into this intriguing life and heartbreaking death.
