Kathryn performed five songs at the festival and completed writing the project whilst touring her 'Crown Electric' release. "So I was writing the songs in Travelodges and on the side of the A1 in between gigs. Those were some dark days with only the sound of the motorway and a Little Chef to drown my sorrows in,"
The Scottish Herald wrote the album was "a collection of rare eloquence and spectacular beauty" with Clash Magazine concluding "By inhabiting and responding to a genuinely significant work of literature, Williams has produced her own spellbinding work of art"
