Only Back soon!
This is a new book from the British author of Courting the Wild Twin. Again it’s oblique and elliptical. It’s a beautiful hardcover pocket sized book with minimal but evocative line drawings. It contains three fairy tales written by the author and three chapters that explain the tales. I read them not in the order in the book – the tales before the explanatory chapters, because I didn’t realise that was how they related to each other, and that worked. The stories feel ancient and they work magnificently on their own. However they are constructed to unpack contemporary issues, like authenticity in times of fake news, fixation on material possessions and being fixated on your digital devices. The author though also leaves a lot unsaid and only implied. It’s part of the process to work things out for ourselves and take our own path into greater self-realization.
